The pretty northern suburb of Johannesburg, Fairland is neighbour to Northcliff and Darrenwood; close to Cresta, one of the city’s major landmarks and home to a plethora of shops and entertainment, and Brightwater Commons - another biggish shopping centre that used to be known as the Randburg Waterfront. Fairland is one of the leafier and older suburbs prone to large, verdant gardens and fairly big homes. It has recently expanded to include the new FNB and WesBank campus, a R1.2 billion building on the corner of Beyers Naude and Wilson roads. The building, apparently built according to environmentally friendly standards that began with the foundations which were dug without moving any soil from the site, is large enough to house both Ellis Park and Wanderers stadiums and it is a 2 kilometre walk around the building’s perimeter.
