LXX Sandhurst is a luxury outdoor shopping destination that opened in mid 2024 at 70 Rivonia Road in Sandhurst, Johannesburg. The name takes inspiration from the Roman numerals for 70( LXX), referencing the site’ s address. Developed by The Cavaleros Group, the project is a key addition to their expanding retail portfolio and was completed over a 12 month construction period. Phase 1 ran from 1 December 2023 to 25 July 2024.

Occupying the site of the former IBM campus, the centre takes advantage of Johannesburg’ s typically sunny, mild weather with an open-air, lifestyle-oriented layout. Located a short walk from Discovery’ s glass-and-steel headquarters and the Sandton City precinct, LXX Sandhurst is set within what is often referred to as Johannesburg’ s richest square mile, due to its concentration of corporate headquarters and the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.
Accessible, Open and Connected LXX Sandhurst offers 309 parking bays across a combination of basement and on-grade parking areas. Pedestrian movement is prioritised, with a central piazza surrounded by outdoor restaurants and landscaped walkways. Carefully managed
LXX Sandhurst is a successful transformation of a former office campus into an elegant, lifestyleoriented destination highlights the potential of adaptive reuse in South Africa’ s urban centres
