Portside Tower
City of Cape Town, South Africa
The 897th tallest building in the world
Portside is a 139-metre-tall (456 ft) building in Cape Town, South Africa. Completed in 2014, it is the city's tallest building and, at the time of completion, was Cape Town's first significant skyscraper developed in the city's central business district (CBD) in 15 years. The property is jointly owned by FirstRand Bank (FNB, RMB, Wesbank and Ashburton) and Accelerate Property Fund (APF). The bank self-occupies its share of the property, while AcPF leases office and retail space to tenants. AcPF appointed the Cape Town commercial brokerage firm Baker Street Properties to manage and market the property. The Green Building Council of South Africa (GBCSA) awarded the property a 5 star Green Star rating, making it the tallest Green Building in South Africa.
