The tales behind Johannesburg’s skyscrap...
Before inviting readers to visit the famous Anstey’s Building, the 20-floor art deco darling of mid-century Johannesburg, the book starts with a poetic series of descriptive questions detailing the current inhabitants of Joubert Street and Anstey’s. It then sends the reader back in time, to the building’s glory days as a prime shopping and leisure destination in segregated white South Africa.The tales behind Johannesburg’s skyscrapers | Arts and Culture | M&G
