    I live in Moreleta Park and I drive past it regularly. It's so sad seeing it everytime I drive past it. I feel bad especially for the people who lived on that land who were relocated. Can you imagine how they must feel seeing that all those efforts to relocate them, uprooting them from a place that's probably been home for years for many of them, eventually amounting to nothing.

    The government should purchase it and turn it into a university.

      So people can strike for free education that they will never pay back?

    As far as I recall, the Builders hold a construction Lien over the Building and its site! They were never paid for the work they undertook, so are sitting tight. The interior is probably 75% completed, even the escalators are installed. Its draw card was to be that most of the Parking is inside the building, and each spot is no more than 25m from a lift or escalator- unlike the Malls in Pretoria where most of the parking is in open uncovered /unsecured parking area. A recent offer was made to the Liquidators and it is being scrutinized and discussed by the parties involved according to recent press reports.

    I see it often. I think it can make for a great district hospital with a teaching university hospital. It can even be a science and innovation centre.

      I like the way you think about it.

    They should make it into a Live/Work space with apartments, childcare, offices, a market, a library and educational centers. Make the large green space a park.

    • @dimbwemazala8978
      @dimbwemazala8978 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      No... make it into a technical university. Bring the Russians to introduce their way of teaching engineering and medicine; I would go so far as naming it Brezhnev Technical University in honour of the titanic contribution the Soviets made to the liberation of not just Southern African in general, and South Africa in particular, but the whole world.

      White people swindled retirees. This what they mean by a Ponzi scheme. The reason why you do not hear about it, is because it is another crime committed by white men.

    My folks could inhabit a shop there since they invested half their retirement funds via a friend (fin. advisor) in Sharemax... Key point: even if advised by close friends, do your homework.

    The developers had good intentions amids the risks involved. So sad things didn't work out good. Their other shopping mall, the Zambezi Mall didn't do good either and was taken over by the Chinese and is now call China Mall.

    Government should nationalis without compensation and give it to other investors with good project in open competitive bidding.

    • @clarencemaseko428
      @clarencemaseko428 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Such an inconsiderate comment. Imagine retirees who invested all their lifetime savings, they're obviously hoping they will get something out of it or at least their grandkids. Fortunately there's law and it's highly unlikely govt will win such a move

    • @dimbwemazala8978
      @dimbwemazala8978 ปีที่แล้ว

      Government can do better than that and turn it into a university teaching medicine and STEM subjects

    Surely,this is how money is put to waste in South Africa while so many people are poverty stricken and in need of this money. It's a shame!!!

      Money was not put to waste, the banks sabotaged this investment because they were not made part of it

    SA already has an oversupply of commercial properties, which is why, as an investment, it doesn't look attractive at the moment.

    • @dimbwemazala8978
      @dimbwemazala8978 ปีที่แล้ว

      White men swindled other white people. Why do white people want black people in their affairs all of a sudden. White on white crime leave it alone. The government should use eminent domain to seize the property and turn it into a public university to teach medicine and STEM subjects

    • @dimbwemazala8978
      @dimbwemazala8978 ปีที่แล้ว

      No. Return the land to its black owners, convert the property on it into a university specialising in science and technology; The victims of the white on white investment scheme can sue each other court.

      This has nothing to do with black people. This was a white scheme in which whites swindled other whites. This is why you do not hear about it. It is white on white white collar crime. The ANC should reposes this African land, and repurpose any buildings on it for the public good by making a university specialising in STEM and medicine
