I’m from the UK and spent a week in Rosebank in February. I actually stayed in The Median. I’ve never felt so safe walking the streets in all my time in South Africa. Super convenient place
Rosebank is in another level David when you walking there you can feel the fresh air this place has dramatically changed within a short time yes Rosebank was good before but now it is one of the best palaces in Johannesburg.
How can you leave Johannesburg when there's such outstanding development? The speed at which Rosebank is rising is crazy!!! Thank you David for your dedication and enthusiasm you've shown for the love of Johannesburg. I'll go to Cape Town once a year but my heart and soul is in Johannesburg ❤️❤️❤️
Western media will come to Africa and walk past our beautiful cities without filming then head to the villages to film poor people then tell them that that is how the whole of Africa looks like. Joburg is da bomb. From Naija
It’s many African cities that is as developed as Johannesburg, the city of Windhoek Namibia, Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, Narobi Kenya Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, airport, city, Ghana, the city, Luanda, Angola, Maputo Mozambique, where the white South Africans used to vacation, Lusaka, Zambia, Gabarone Zambia, Abuja, Nigeria, Lekki Nigeria, downtown Congo, so don’t think y’all are speciaWl
Thank you for not being a envious Nigerian. So many come to say miserable things here about SA. Yes I agree, media(not even western media now, SA media itself) will only want us to feel miserable about our countries. Sure there are overwhelming issues but but plenty of progress too
Johannesbourg, the assembly point of the whole South Africa! This beuatiful city can unit people from all walks of life, and as said by our late legend Lucky Dube ´´ together as one!´´ Rosebank is a STATE OF ART town, and I wish this beauty was extended to Alexander Township and many other places to give its inhabitants the real sense of life. Thanks and well done RAINBOW nation. Greetings from Angola!
Has Alexander Township improved a lot since the end of Apartheid? ..I hope so.. I lived in a modest house in Rosebank .. years ago. My children went to Rosebank School just steps away! onward and upwards S. Africa! Lets hope the lights come back on ASAP~!
Stop capping and exaggerating bro. Just say some cities in Europe and USA. This tiny developed area has nothing on Times Square (NY), Hudson Yards (NY), Canary Wharf (London), city (London), Stratford (London), La Defense (Paris), Frankfurt, MIB (Moscow), Porta Nuova (Milano) and the rest. We all love to see the progress and rapid development of African cities but chill with these unecessary overreactions based on ignorance.
Way better...all along South Africa was a Sleeping Giant amongs the World top Giants....All we know is that even a smaller European Country or city, is better Develope than any African Country, The Giant the home of man kind is awake ....South Africa...Wcape the most best and most beautiful Province City in the World....
Most European Countries are done. They don't have the space and land...for further development...United States have to many Buildings...South Africa is in a much better position, we have our Natural environment in between that give us that special something....
21:13 my workplace 🔥. I agree with you David, Rosebank + Oxford Parks = Richest precinct. More buildings upcoming, One Rosebank Building, Oxford Maine Building, Rosebank Galleria Building, and more ❤️👌🏽
Yes it does look like the TV Tower at Alexanderplatz in Berlin. Built at the end of the sixties, copying a Soviet design, this prestige-project was the fourth-highest free-standing structure in the world then and is still today the highest structure in Germany. In 1987 my mother and I went there to ride to the top but, since the quere was very long, we turned around. The friendly East-German public, however, realising we were visitors took us to the front so we wouldn't have to wait. What a view! Unforgetable!
In the next 5 years Sandton will have nothing on Rosebank if not already!! Rosebank already commands more rental on commercial rentals than sandton. More developments such as this are needed around SA
Sandton needs wide pavements: drinking and outdoor eateries to make it a pleasant place to socialise and have fun, especially at weekends. At present, it's just a glorified office park.
Awesome footage! The firm I work for, Daffonchio Architects, designed The Bank building and the whole street upgrade. Was such an awesome project 😁😁 . Please get in touch with us we would love to share some of the footage on our platforms if possible.
Thank you Dave... Much appreciated from us the Joburgers. And we're still developing even further. The best thing about Jo'burg development is incusivity.
It is only after you leave for a while that you truly get to realise how developed and mordern the place is. It is easy to take all this for granted when you are exposed to it on a regular...
When my family comes up from the UK, they love going to Joburgs malls and areas like rosebank. Coming from the UK, but out of London, they are always blown away by the size of Joburgs buildings and how modern they are.
I don't know about the "super" part, there's room for improvement in my opinion. They should build a closed in taxi rank and move those taxis because they have that tendency of bringing litter everywhere they are stationed.
We appreciate your comment… not to be stereotypical but you don’t here too many people from outside of Joburg saying anything good about Joburg, so it’s good to here that for a change.
Wow 😲 South Africa, very beautiful Rosebank. Those trees with the purple leaves are refreshing. How much do you think the houses may cost? Probably appointments ~50m2?
@@TheIrieman15 Yeah, very interesting, that building has blinds shades that automatically follows the sun and they change themselves as the sun rotate, not sure how true this is because I have never been in there to see
This is a world class City. You don’t need to be scared of being knocked down by cars. walk many kilometers without seeing many cars. This type of city does not exist in any other Black African country.
Europe slowly fall behind interms of Modernize Buildings compare to South Africa...Look in Rosebank still in a process of Developing...look at the Modern Architectural Structures....top nosh...
@@lozi4163I don’t think the architecture is why people love CT, it’s cause of the natural scenery and that it’s much cleaner and safer than Joburg (obviously not including townships)
If this is what developed looks like then Africa has a long way to go. Was just watching Dany Got A Wrold To See and he was in Malaysia. We need to aim much higher.
@@_theerealnono_7694 Last time this person told me that, she lives here and even dating a South African man, on the other video, i saw her replying to you saying she lives in Canada. one thing to be certain about, this person whoever she is, she is very obsessed. This level of obsession is scary. People like this can carry mass killings in SA because of hate and envy
@@lozi4163 my comment focused on Africa. Not Zimbabwe. Yes, we need to appreciate the little we have. You're correct. I just not in the mindset of celebrating mediocrity. Not to say this is mediocre, far from it. But we need to aim much higher.

Who told am Zim. Remember a coward assisted u to battle apartheid. A coward reclaimed their land which u have failed to do🤣.So tell me, who is a coward !?? 🤣
Rosebank has become horribly overbuilt, there are too many suburbs that have too many massive buildings Rosebank is one of them, Sandown just down the road is equally overbuilt. Remember Johannesburg is nearby being left to die which is inexcusable.
Exactly, energy invested in keeping these small areas safe and clean should also be invested into joburg CBD, we need the biggest city in South Africa/biggest city in the world not situated on a coastline to be safe, clean and functional again. 🙂
Cities need to be built up in order to grow the economy. Yes the main CBD could use more attention but even then it isn’t big enough to accommodate the size of Joburgs population so new suburbs like Rosebank and sandton are inevitable for economic development
You had an excellent guide he certainly knows that area very well. Just one question, why on earth would they place the tower of Berlin in a relief of Jo'burgs skyline? It's obviously meant to be the Telkom tower mate.

😊I was there from time to time visiting Linaleni Mkize of Sony in 1997
I’m from the UK and spent a week in Rosebank in February. I actually stayed in The Median. I’ve never felt so safe walking the streets in all my time in South Africa. Super convenient place
What I love about JHB is in and amougst the development, there are still trees. Love seeing that green.
Love the trees! Nothing like the sound of wind through leaves during twilight.
Big up to all the companies who always chose to invest in South Africa, despite all the political mess by our politicians
No wonder Rosebank is forever under construction, you can see why👏🏽👌🏾
My hood..I love that its bursting with development & restaurant culture
Rosebank is in another level David when you walking there you can feel the fresh air this place has dramatically changed within a short time yes Rosebank was good before but now it is one of the best palaces in Johannesburg.
It’s that northern joburg suburban air with the birds chirping, nothing like it
I am not South African, but I agree that South Africa is the most developed country in Africa.
Thank you❤
@@hlengiwefeliciamabuza7354❤❤❤❤❤
City build by Europians. We don’t have such kind of a World Class city in other black Africa. Hope no body feel humilieted by saing the truth.
In terms of infastructure monetary policy and banking system
@@johnsjohn1the bitter truth. The black man is not fit to run a government. Without the whites the black man will mak no progress in life
WOW I used to work for FNB there in Tyrwhitt Ave, haven't been there since 2013 WHAT a change, thank you
This is beautiful I love my country 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦✌️🙏🏿🙏🏿💚
Wow Rosebank really looks stunning, and it’s so safe to walk around, always refreshing.

Rosebank is rising with crime that is just like the rest of the country!!
Gaza shield? When it's the same?
I feel the same man, yhoo. Joburg is something else 💯✊❤🔥
Because the majority of Johannesburg is a shithole. Enclaves like rosebank only benefit those who can afford it.

Much much better walkable and livable place than Sandton
I agree
True
Yes walkable than Sandton but Sandton still the most prime real estate in all of Africa, not just in SA
It's walkable because everything is close by
It is walkable because everything is close by.
Looks WAY better than cities in Europe or the USA!

Even Waterfall Midrand will be better than Sandton.
@@mohjayy Rosebank maybe but not waterfall. Rosebank is well planned but architecturally, Sandton is still leading in Africa
Sandton needs wide pavements: drinking and outdoor eateries to make it a pleasant place to socialise and have fun, especially at weekends. At present, it's just a glorified office park.
No street vendors in Rosebank
Waterfall City will bypass Sandton very soon because it has so much land for development. Sandton has no space at all.
