OUR SMART CITY

“Companies are realising that in order to get their staff back in the office, they need to make it more desirable,” continues Anderson. “It’s not only important how your office is designed and how it looks on the inside, but your experience when you arrive and leave the office is paramount to your overall work satisfaction. You want to feel safe; you want to pop out for something to eat or take a walk to clear your head, perhaps exercise be- fore or after work. To this point, the walkability of the Bridgeways precinct is unique and offers a balanced workday. There are 13 restaurants and coffee shops, five hotels, a world-class conference centre, gym, the beau- tiful Ratanga Park and Canal Walk Shopping Centre, all

within easy walking distance. In addition, there are over 1 800 undercover bays and open parking areas that are available for public parking in the precinct.” The Century City Property Owners’ Association’s bi- annual survey conducted earlier this year showed dis- tinctly that safety and security is the number one pri- ority for residents, business owners and people who work in the precinct. It also indicated that stakehold- ers are extremely satisfied with the level of safety and security in the precinct. In addition to this, the way that the precinct is managed from an infrastructure and maintenance point of view to landscaping and transport, makes Century City a smart place to work.
