The South African Post Office has been a long-standing tenant and currently occupies the main portion of the building under a lease expiring December 2026, paying R120 per m². Given the extensive alterations and upgrades completed to their specifications, it is reasonable to expect a lease renewal, though this has not yet been confirmed.

Above the commercial level, the residential units consist of:

A four-bedroom flat and a three-bedroom flat, both partially furnished

Each with a living roomkitchen, bathroom, and spectacular elevated views over the city

Excellent security and solid student rental demand, with rooms fetching around R3 000 per month

This building has had a fascinating historyoriginally designed as a cinema, later repurposed as a Fruit & Veg retailer, and now serving as a modern postal facility. Should the Post Office eventually vacate, the propertys layout, loading area at the rear, and adjacent public parking make it ideal for a premium food retailer such as Woolworths Foods or a speciality grocer.
