The building comprises 2,600m ² of office space in three storeys plus a double parking basement accommodating a total of 92 vehicles plus storage areas . The building is situated on the rapidly developing corridor of Oxford Road , one of Johannesburg ’ s busiest arterial roads linking Sandton to the CBD . The transformation along this road has been quite remarkable in the last two years . This is probably due to the proximity to the Rosebank Gautrain Station as well as to the Rosebank office node in general . This office node is currently one of the most favoured locations for offices in Johannesburg .
It is easily accessible and is framed by two of Johannesburg ’ s most important arterial roads , Oxford Road and Jan Smuts Avenue on the east and west of the node respectively . This means that traffic is able to enter and disperse in many directions . The development along Oxford Road has been mainly in the form of 3-storey office buildings , although the recently completed Ipanema apartment building , comprising some 68 apartments , is interspersed between these office buildings , giving the Houghton suburb an element of mixed use .
