Here's lookin' at you...

I have respect for these guys. We don't even see them unless we go to a lot of trouble. We just do our thing and the next thing, we're riding the Gautrain like it's always been there.
This chasm is also right beside a route I drive everyday - Oxford Road going past Rosebank's The Zone.

I wonder how they got those massive steel bars into place. Sure they hoisted them with cranes, but did they put them in place before or after they dug the chasm underneath.

Do these guys also work nights?

Rosebank is still very much 'Under Construction'

I grabbed my camera on my lunchbreak yesterday, and whilst taking the first few pictures of the massive big hole next to The Zone in Rosebank, I found myself chatting to one of the construction workers. He told me they are building a hotel...er...ANOTHER hotel, and a shopping mall...er, ANOTHER mall. What about the defunct mall next to the AVUSA offices?

I reckon the defuct mall should be converted into a Food Hall, with lots of smallish restaurants (like King Pie) etc for staff from Total, all the AVUSA people and shoppers.

Instead of a hotel, what about a gym, or a park, or some sort of area for relaxation...even an aquarium. I guess they could always build a pool deck on the roof...
