    Very nice narration of Sandton’s evolution. Lots of unknowns are now known. Excellent work.

    Sandton City Mall was never the biggest mall in the world, but it has been one of the largest shopping centers in Africa. Opened in 1973 in Johannesburg, South Africa, it has consistently ranked among the continent's largest malls and remains a major shopping and commercial hub.
    Globally, the title of the "biggest mall in the world" has been held by malls like the Dubai Mall in the UAE and West Edmonton Mall in Canada at various points in history. However, Sandton City has always been recognized for its size, luxury offerings, and status as a premium shopping destination in Africa.

    Wait, I thought the name "Sandton" came from the combination of Sandown & Bryanston surburbs...🤔

      @@thandiwemntande2364 the tower makes part of the sandton city complex. The owners are the ones I mentioned on the video being liberty the biggest one of them. You can see by the big liberty advert on top of the tower. The building is an office tower with hundreds of small businesses inside.
