Lost Braamfontein

My latest historical piece for JHBlive on ‘Lost Braamfontein’ was published recently. Check out the abridged JHBLive piece here or the full post here.

For the full (ongoing) history of Braamfontein and other early suburbs in JHB, visit my blog Johannesburg1912. It’s full of rare photos and some interesting then-and-now comparisons of early Johannesburg.
