James Cresswell, Cape regional director at Abland, says “We believe that the location is perfect, not only is the property next to the MyCiti bus station, it is within close proximity to the main train station – making it easily accessible to individuals commuting via public transport. Motorists also have easy access to the N1, N2 and the Western Seaboard. In addition, the building is located in the popular foreshore precinct close to the Cape Town International Convention Centre. Amenities such as hotels, restaurants and bars surround the building making this a very popular precinct.”

35 Lower Long’design has been carefully considered, with an unusual sculpted form as to best maximize views of the surrounding city.
