The building was erected in 1954, though, and originally housed the Central Pass Office, from where passes were issued under apartheid.
JOHANNESBURG - Johannesburg City Manager Floyd Brink says they will be working with the National Heritage Council of South Africa to decide what to do with the city centre building that was gutted by last week’s fatal fire.
“We will be working with the heritage council as well. Already from our side we had our structural engineers in that closed the building and sealed the building for us. But it’s still early stages for us to indicate what will be happening to the building. At the same time, Brink said a commission inquiry looking into last week’s deadly fire in Marshalltown would provide guidance on how to address the issue of hijacked buildings.
