Description: An example of the office building accommodation available in Bellville's growing central business district district is this modern building society block. The Saambou National Building Society's new building in Bellville was officially opened this week by Dr C.F. Albertyn. In addition to the shopping space on the ground floor, there are seven floors of office space and the banking hall also provides for art exhibitions. Saambou now owns buildings in Bellville valued at more than R1 500 000. With office accommodation in big demand in the rapidly developing Tygeberg area, office blocks are going up all over. One of the latest and largest blocks is the Saambou National Building, opened towards the end of last year. This building offers shopping space on the ground floor and seven floors of office space.
