Transactions to the value of R7.5m have been concluded in the soon-to-be-completed prestigious building, 'The Hudson', which is centrally situated and bounded by Hudson & Strand Streets in Cape Town's vibrant De Waterkant area. Among the tenants is business broadcaster CNBC Africa which will be leasing 235 sqm in The Hudson. The Cape Town CNBC bureau will produce live inserts for the broadcaster's daily programming from studios on the fifth floor.
With exceptional views of Table Mountain and Cape Town, The Hudson comprises 2 400sqm AAA grade and fully air-conditioned offices and 1 100 sqm of retail space. In the centre of the complex is a courtyard and coffee shop. The rate for office accommodation in The Hudson is R120 per square metre plus VAT. Parking is available, at an additional cost.
"Tenants moving into this upmarket complex are of a high calibre and include professionals and businesses such as an IT company catering for blue-chip corporates, a commodities trader and importers," says Selwyn Sharon, Pam Golding Commercial leasing and sales consultant. "Retailers include top fashion and homeware boutique shops with mainly imported merchandise."
Sharon says the penthouse suite is currently still available for lease, comprising 340sqm of luxury office accommodation with three terraces and the extensive use of glass providing unobstructed, panoramic views over Cape Town. "This is an exceptional location, ideal for a corporate head office - particularly for entertaining overseas clients with sundowners on the decks," he says.
Situated just below the historic Bo Kaap area, trendy and fashionable De Waterkant is a highly sought after part of Cape Town, and is within easy walking distance of the V&A Waterfront, the central city with its café society, and Cape Town International Conference Centre.
