“Sally approached our project with efficiency, speed, energy and dynamism assisting the GBCSA to define and optimise the tool she was working with. It was a ground breaking project that required solutions to achieve the outcome we sought and she succeeded. We were very happy with the process, quality and outcome of Sally’s work.”

Growthpoint Properties’ Greenfield Industrial Park in Cape Town has been awarded South Africa’s first ever Green Star SA rating for an industrial property.
In a milestone achievement for green building in South Africa, Greenfield received a 4-Star Custom Industrial As-Built Green Star SA certification from the Green Building Council South Africa (GBCSA).
Growthpoint’s green building consultants for Greenfield, Sally Misplon from Misplon Consulting and Francois Retief from Sow & Reap, examined this opportunity further. Collaborating with GBCSA, they jointly developed a custom new build certification for the industrial facility, which is a progressive approach to ensuring more building types can be certified by the GBCSA. The custom process uses around 80% of existing Green Star SA tools making minor changes to allow application to other sectors for which tools have not yet been developed. To ensure robustness and relevance, the custom process goes through an independent peer review before it is finalised as a rating tool for the project.
The Greenfield project was a wonderful opportunity to apply this process, which proved successful due to, among other things, the Green Star experience that Misplon and Retief added to the process.
Black River Park in Cape Town has become the first office precinct in South Africa to receive Green Building Council of South Africa (GBCSA) certified Green Star SA ratings for all its buildings.
The eight buildings at Black River Park office precinct in Observatory, offering a combined 75,000m² of office space, have earned unparalleled green building credentials. Besides being the first full office park to have all buildings Green Star SA rated, it is also home to the first Green Star SA Existing Building Performance (EBP) certified building and the first buildings to receive a 6 Star Green Star SA Existing Building Performance rating.
Sally Misplon of Misplon Green Building Consulting, the Green Star Accredited Professional and principal participant in the green project team, guided Black River Park right from the very start in its certification project.
JSE-listed Redefine Properties on Thursday said it had completed the R4.1-billion acquisition of the Leaf Capital portfolio of properties, a deal which significantly boosted the company’s Western Cape office portfolio.
This included Black River Park, which offered 74 000 m² of office space, Wembley Square and The Boulevard and equated to nearly two-thirds of the acquired portfolio, with average property values at R900-million each.
“This is a very important deal for us. The acquisition of the Leaf portfolio is in line with our strategy to invest in a diversified portfolio of high-quality assets. Importantly, it also changes the face of our Western Cape portfolio, which will now include the top 5% of [high]-quality office blocks in Cape Town and a number of the country’s greenest complexes,” Redefine CEO Andrew Konig CEO said.
