Sandton

This is a picture of a section of Sandton, South Africa. Sandton forms part of a collection of suburbs to the north of Johannesburg, known as the Northern Suburbs. The Corporate Head Offices of various businesses used to be located in and around the Johannesburg CBD. Business owners and high level managers used to live in the Northern Suburbs while lower ranked employees used to live closer to the city itself. With time development moved to the Northern Suburbs. Sandon has developed into a major business hub incorporating office towers, shopping centers and residential estates. Traffic can be a nightmare.
