Every time I drive past Webber Wentzel’s new building in Sandton, I am impressed by how big a law firm can grow! The building, right opposite Sandton City, continues to climb and I can only imagine not only what it will cost to build, but what the piece of land it is on must have cost! It is an absolutely prime, prime position and when they say that the three golden rules of property are location, location and location – well, then this property has all three of them! It has some time to go before it is finished, but I would not be surprised if it is not finished later this year or early next year, because I don’t think offices need the same finishes that a house does, but one thing is for sure, if I was a client of theirs, I would not imagine that they are working at R2 500,00 an hour!

It is an excellent location and the building is going to look spectacular, but the traffic will be a nightmare...

To work in a beautiful building is a privilege. Not many companies have that kind of capital to layout for big buildings. But, we all can dream, can't we..........

It has however taken a lot of time to build but why rush perfection especially because they still have their offices in Illovo. With an International client base I think it makes an even better location seen that chances are most client could afford to stay in Sandton which is close to their attorneys offices. I would like to work there one day but can you imagine the traffic driving to work every day?

It's better to have a caravan in the hills than a mansion in the valley. So if you have a mansion in the hills you have hit the property jackpot

I will reserve my comment about the look until the building is finished. Right now looks like a construction site, nothing pretty about that. Location is important, nothing wrong with De Broglio's location, we are on a very busy road. Most people I have spoken to know exactly where we are because our building has been marketed very well.

It is in a prime spot and certainly an impressive structure.

It is not called the "richest square mile" in Africa for no reason.

I have driven past their new building several times and it is going up extremely quickly. I imagine that it is going to look incredible when it is finished and location is absolutely perfect. I just cannot imagine dealing with traffic in the CBD if I worked at that location.

Seriously looks cool. Good structure as well. Location is important and they built it in the right place.
