Why go

Look here for the architecture of Johannesburg’s banking boom rather than a conventional visitor attraction. Built in 1970, the former headquarters combines a tall office form with reflective glazing. Its position around the Eloff, Fox and Main Street block makes it a useful point of comparison with other commercial buildings in the centre.

What to look for

  • The former bank headquarters rises to 140 m.
  • Architects Colyn and Meiring are associated with the building.

Useful to know

  • Plan to observe the exterior; public interior access has not been established.
  • Include it when concentrating on the Eloff, Fox and Main Street part of the CBD.
