I’ve set up an Instagram feed for all things Johannesburg under the name JOHANNESBURG1912. I’ll be posting random pictures with a little history that fall outside the rigid suburb confines of this blog. All post are tagged with #oldjohannesburg
The next post on the suburb Bertrams is ready to go. It just needs some additional pictures which are proving difficult to take. It should be ready after the weekend
Also look out for the next JHBlive piece on the history of the Plein Street telephone tower which was demolished on the 1930s.

This is awesome. We grew up in the South of Jhb and still live this side. The old south has basically been destroyed by foreigners who make a living out of prostitution and drugs 😦
