With Gauteng being the economic hub of the country, development opportunities for Industrial Parks of this nature, are extremely limited because of value of land, stringent environmental considerations, economic considerations, etc, and it is fair to assume that Lords View will in all probability be one of the best developments of this nature and magnitude for a considerable number of years.
