enlyn Maine is a new city centre being developed in the east of Pretoria by
Menlyn Maine Investment Holdings. With close links to the N1 situated between
Atterbury and Garsfontein roads, it is an area that has seen large growth of
new buildings and developments.
The Menlyn Maine mega development – a 350,000m 2 urban precinct that is being built
at a cost of R10 billion, is according to Henk Boogertman, Menlyn Maine’s Director of
Architecture and Design: “A huge thing. It’s one of the biggest commercial construction
projects underway in the country today.” Upon its completion Menlyn Maine will be
comprised of 140,000m² of commercial office space, 35,000m² of retail, dining, and
shopping space, 35,000m² of up-market residential apartments, 18,000m² of luxury
hotel space, a 60,000m² Time Square Entertainment Complex, and large tracts of scenic
parkland and open urban space.
The Menlyn Maine development is truly unique in that it is the first green city of its
kind to emerge on the African continent. Each and every component building in Menlyn
Maine has been designed with environmental sustainability in mind, in order to create
a precinct that is highly energy and carbon efficient, to the extent that it is Green Rated
by the Green Building Council of South Africa – one of only a handful of urban regions
in the world to earn this accolade.
