Think about how scary that is. Noah was building a massive vessel to survive a global storm, but he had zero control over it or over where it went. He couldn't steer it away from rocks. He couldn't turn it into the waves. He couldn't aim for dry land. He was completely at the mercy of the water.
The Ark was not designed for navigation; just for floating. Noah's job was to to be the Passenger, not the Captain. God was the Captain.
This blessed me. I hope it blesses you too.
An abandoned, hijacked CBD building turned into a fully let student housing success story👏💪
Remington House, situated on Nugget Street in Johannesburg, has been transformed into a green-certified mixed-use building with affordable rental units and is fully let.
The office block was previously abandoned and later hijacked. Today, she’s a student accommodation success story.
Details of the building:
• Building area: 7 191m2
• 133 bachelor apartments
• 5 ground-floor retail shops
• 14 parking bays
• Amenities: study centre and gym
• EDGE results: Energy 27.81%; Water 22.40%; Materials (embodied carbon) 51.00%
• Resource systems: Centralised heat pumps; solar installation; borehole and filtration; LED lighting; low-flow fixtures; dual-flush toilets; optimised façade glazing
So many buildings have been hijacked in this street; one can only hope that more can be saved.
This conversion was made possible by TUHF, for which I give huge kudos. We would love to see more of this.
They robbed us blind and told us that our neighbors were the enemy. All that culture war shit was a diversion to distract us from the largest wealth transfer in history.
