GENERAL NEWS Boiteko Junction to get an upgrade By Brett Marlin Boiteko Junction, completed in 2005, is heading for an upgrade and extension. Other than a refurbishment to the exterior of the building walkways and parking areas, an additional 3 600m² of retail space is going to be developed. We are going to have to get Environmental Management Plan approval, planning permission and building permit permission so it is unlikely that we will be able to start on site before June 2020. Time Projects has been appointed by PrimeTime as project and development managers. PrimeTime at it again in the CBD By Brett Marlin After the unapparelled success of Prime Plaza in the new CBD and the continued demand for space in their properties, PrimeTime has acquired the site between Prime Plaza and Mashatu Terrace. The intention is to develop three or four buildings on the site similar to Prime Plaza. A 2 800m² building on the south western corner will be constructed first and dependent on acquiring tenants, the other building will follow. As with all PrimeTime and Time Projects developments - quality, efficiency and design is at the forefront of the development along with parking, which people generally do not cater for sufficiently. The initial plan is to have 1½ basements for tenant parking and A-grade parking for visitors. Time has been appointed as project and development managers and with these buildings, will bring the number of buildings that Time has developed in the CBD to 14. That is quite a feather in our cap! 10 ISSUE 40 - DECEMBER 2019
