Johannesburg Map Art Prints
Johannesburg's grid sprawls across the Witwatersrand ridge, its streets running in strict rectangular blocks from the original 1886 mining camp at Commissioner Street. The city fans outward in concentric rings of suburbs, bisected by the M1 and M2 highways that radiate from the center like spokes, while the Limpopo and Crocodile Rivers mark the northern boundary of the greater metropolitan area. The Apartheid-era spatial divisions remain visible in the map — wealth concentrated in the northern suburbs like Sandton and Rosebank, separated by clear geographic and infrastructural lines from the sprawling township rings of Soweto and Alexandra to the south and east.
