countries. Many people wonder how they managed before ride hailing applications such as Uber and short-term accommodation rental applications such as Airbnb. These technologies have changed the face of commuting and travelling within cities as well as travel for business people and holiday makers. Despite the relative novelty of these technologies, there have been concerns raised about their impact on labour rights and housing prices in some countries. Regulators in several of the world’s tourism hotspots such as London, New York and Amsterdam have stepped in to create controls around Airbnb to mitigate concerns about rising property prices affecting locals. In South Africa, there has been anecdotal reportage in the media about the link between the popularity of Airbnb and rising property prices in Cape Town. While Cape Town has received more attention, the number of Airbnb listings in Johannesburg is growing, though still relatively small compared to other metropolitan cities in the world. No large-scale study has been undertaken into the phenomenon in both cities by government authorities or academic scholars. This research report looks at the nature and location of Airbnb listings in Johannesburg as well as data on rental and property prices in Johannesburg and nationwide over the last five years. In the report, I also make use of interviews with real-estate agents and city planning authorities to consider whether Airbnb has impacted housing prices or spatial patterns. This report concludes that most Airbnb listings are located within areas in Johannesburg that are already well connected to economic opportunities and infrastructure. In addition, the research shows that Johannesburg, a city in a state of flux and ever evolving, is not like cities within developed countries with relatively stable economies. Due to difficult economic conditions in recent years and weaker property prices as well as rental incomes, it is not possible to find a correlation between the rise of Airbnb and property prices. 6 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I have eternal gratitude to my supervisor Professor Michelle Williams who warned me in March 2018 the research year will fly by. I did not quite believer her then but it has. Thank you, Prof, for the deadlines and the patience with the missed deadlines, for always pushing me to refine my argument and expand my thinking about the aims of my research (and calling out run-on sentences). To my parents, Dov and Shoshana, siblings Sarah and Avi, siblings-by-marriage and in name Warren and Haylee and nephew Aaron. You encouraged me to keep writing, when I wanted to give up and made me feel supported and loved, no matter what. To my late brothers, Sam and Michael, I think about you every day.

  • BUILDING from SCRATCH: New Cities, Privatized Urbanism and the Spatial Restructuring of Johannesburg After Apartheid
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF URBAN AND REGIONAL RESEARCH 471 DOI:10.1111/1468-2427.12180 — BUILDING FROM SCRATCH: New Cities, Privatized Urbanism and the Spatial Restructuring of Johannesburg after Apartheid claire w. herbert and martin j. murray Abstract By the start of the twenty-first century, the once dominant historical downtown core of Johannesburg had lost its privileged status as the center of business and commercial activities, the metropolitan landscape having been restructured into an assemblage of sprawling, rival edge cities. Real estate developers have recently unveiled ambitious plans to build two completely new cities from scratch: Waterfall City and Lanseria Airport City ( formerly called Cradle City) are master-planned, holistically designed ‘satellite cities’ built on vacant land. While incorporating features found in earlier city-building efforts, these two new self-contained, privately-managed cities operate outside the administrative reach of public authority and thus exemplify the global trend toward privatized urbanism. Waterfall City, located on land that has been owned by the same extended family for nearly 100 years, is spearheaded by a single corporate entity. Lanseria Airport City/Cradle City is a planned ‘aerotropolis’ surrounding the existing Lanseria airport at the northwest corner of the Johannesburg metropole. These two new private cities differ from earlier large-scale urban projects because everything from basic infrastructure (including utilities, sewerage, and the installation and maintenance of roadways),

  • JOHANNESBURG a Challenge to Action
    JOHANNESBURG AFRICA’S WORLD CITY A challenge to action EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Johannesburg is a ‘slipping world city’. Its future as an African suc- cess story and an attractive and competitive location for business and the skilled people who start up and run those businesses is not assured. The city is the nerve centre of the national and increasing- ly the subcontinent’s economy. Its decline will have an immeasura- ble impact on the country and the continent’s prospects and interna- tional image. Despite the laudable efforts of the current city council, the issues facing the city are not ones that the council can solve, or even adequately debate on its own. Johannesburg is one of the coun- try’s leading national priorities. Johannesburg can be a world-class city, a beacon of success on a con- tinent marked by failure and poverty. What is required is for key national and local leaders – the president, the cabinet, the ANC, business leaders and others – to have the courage to recognise the challenge, and act boldly to meet it. This is an executive summary of a research report entitled Johannesburg: Africa's world city – a challenge to action, released by the Centre for Development and Enterprise in October 2002. The full report is available from CDE. See back page for contact details. THE CENTRE FOR DEVELOPMENT AND ENTERPRISE JOHANNESBURG: AFRICA’S WORLD CITY INTRODUCTION This report, the fifth in CDE’s series on South African cities and globalisation, focuses on Johannesburg, the most important city in sub-Saharan Africa. Success for Africa’s leading city will have a dramatic impact on South Africa’s image and potential.

    Infrastructures of Property and Debt: making affordable housing, race and place in Johannesburg A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Siân Butcher IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Advisors: Helga Leitner and Eric Sheppard Department: Geography, Environment and Society July 2016 ©2016 by Siân Butcher Acknowledgements This dissertation is not only about debt, but has been made possible through many debts, but also gifts of various kinds. I want to start by thanking the following for their material support of my graduate study at the University of Minnesota (UMN), my dissertation research and my writing time. Institutionally, my homes have been the department of Geography, Environment and Society (GES) and the Interdisciplinary Center for the Study of Global Change (ICGC). ICGC supported me for two years in partnership with the Center for Humanities Research (CHR) at the University of the Western Cape (UWC) through the generous ICGC-Mellon Scholar fellowship. Pre-dissertation fieldwork between 2010-2011 was supported by GES, ICGC, the York-Wits Global Suburbanisms project, and the Social Science Research Council’s Dissertation Proposal Development Fellowship (SSRC DPDF). Dissertation fieldwork in Johannesburg was made possible by UMN’s Global Spotlight Doctoral Dissertation International Research Grant (2012- 2013) and the immeasurable support of friends and family. My two years of writing was enabled by a semester’s residency at the CHR at UWC in Cape Town; a Doctoral Dissertation Fellowship from the University of Minnesota (2014-5), and a home provided by my partner Trey Smith and then my mother, Sue Butcher.

Ndlela Mphangela Nkonge Daniella Sachs Editors: Alonso Ayala Ellen Geurts IHS WP 026 Ahmad, Ayala, Chirisa, Geurts, Magwaro, Muchindu, Ndlela, Nkonge, Sachs Urbanising Africa: the city centre revisited 2 Introduction This working paper contains a selection of 7 articles written by participants in a Refresher Course organised by IHS in August 2010 in Johannesburg, South Africa. The title of the course was Urbanising Africa: the city centre revisited - Ensuring liveable and sustainable inner-cities in Southern African countries: making it work for the poor. The course dealt in particular with inner-city revitalisation in Southern African countries, namely South Africa, Swaziland, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Inner-city revitalisation processes differ widely between the various cities and countries; e.g. in Lusaka and Mbabane few efforts have been undertaken, whereas Johannesburg in particular but also other South Africa cities have made major investments to revitalise their inner-cities. The definition of the inner-city also differs between countries; in Lusaka the CBD is synonymous with the inner-city, whereas in Johannesburg the inner-city is considered much larger than only the CBD.

    PART 1: INTRODUCTION & BACKGROUND 2008 Figure 3: Proposed Study Area Boundary 3 PART 1: INTRODUCTION & BACKGROUND 2008 3. Sandton Context The Sandton of today is the result of an extensive journey of transformation, collaboration and the pursuit of a specific vision during the past 30 years. According to the Sandton Management District (2007) Sandton is without a doubt one of the most important business and financial districts in South Africa, as well as sub-Saharan Africa. Looking back over the past three decades, the rich heritage of the Sandton and Sandton Central of today is clear. The history of Sandton as described by the Sandton Central Management District (2007) can be summarised as follows: 10 000 years ago the plains of Sandton were traversed by stone-age hunters 1000 years ago tribesmen watered their herds at Sandton's many streams and springs 400 years ago the tribesmen ran an iron-smelting economy 120 years ago the richest gold field on earth was discovered 100 years ago Sandton comprised Johannesburg's lush market garden 50 years ago Sandton comprised a world of rich estates and sandy horse trails. Sandtonions were dubbed the 'mink and manure set' Figure 4: The Sandton Skyline 30 years ago the country's premier shopping mall, Sandton City, was built. The 'Southern Suburbs' of Sandton were laid out quite early in the century and by the thirties, they were well established as 'gentleman estate' areas with the majority of the properties being one morgen or larger in size. At this stage they formed the 'northern' suburbs of Johannesburg and in some cases, extended beyond the boundaries of the city.

  • Exploring High Streets in Suburban Johannesburg
    EXPLORING HIGH STREETS IN SUBURBAN JOHANNESBURG By Tatum Tahnee Kok A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Town and Regional Planning. Johannesburg, 2016 1 DECLARATION I declare that this dissertation is my own unaided work. It is being submitted for the Degree of Master of Science to the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. It has not been submitted before for any degree or examination to any other University. …………………………………………………………………………… (Signature of Candidate) ……….. Day of …………….., …………… (Day) (Month) (Year) 2 ABSTRACT Traditionally the high street serviced residents in the local suburb. The proliferation of entertainment and leisure activities on the high street in suburban Johannesburg has appealed to people in the broader region. These social spaces within the suburb provide a simultaneous interaction of individuals who can carry out their daily activities of shopping, dining and socializing and essentially has contributed to these high streets being successful destination points. Patrons, the foot traffic of the high street, sustain businesses on the high street. Some business owners neglect to implement city by-laws and comply with licensing regulations often perpetuating unfavourable circumstances for residents in the suburb. Noise, petty crime and parking constraints detract from the street's allure. Alternatively, some residents enjoy easy access to the street's activities. Using a mixed method research approach, this research reveals some of the perceptions, regulations and tensions regarding the prominence of entertainment and leisure activities on the high street. Three case studies (7th Street in Melville, 4th Avenue in Parkhurst and Rockey/Raleigh Street in Greater Yeoville) are explored to evaluate the role of entertainment and leisure on the suburban high street.
