The map
About this Boksburg map poster
Boksburg sits on the East Rand of Gauteng, part of the Ekurhuleni metropolitan municipality east of Johannesburg. It grew from the gold rush of the late nineteenth century, and the map still carries that history: the town lies along the line of the gold reef, where mining land, railways and industrial zones cut long bands between the residential suburbs.
Water is an unusual feature on this dry plateau. Boksburg Lake lies near the town centre, and several other lakes and dams dot the surrounding area, some of them formed in the hollows left by mining. The town also sits close to O. R. Tambo International Airport, which puts it on the busiest transport corridor in the region.
A Boksburg map poster brings out the mix of textures typical of the East Rand. Suburban streets curve in loops and cul-de-sacs, older blocks keep a straight grid near the centre, and the open shapes of lakes, mine land and highways break the pattern into distinct districts across the Highveld.

Mining belt
Former gold-mining land and rail lines run in long east-west bands, dividing the town and giving the map a strong horizontal structure.
Suburban loops
Residential areas mix straight older grids with curving roads and closes, creating contrasting textures from one suburb to the next.

Why Boksburg
A map that means something
Boksburg is home for many families across the East Rand, and a map of it records where people grew up, went to school or bought their first house. The lakes and mining bands make it more interesting than a plain grid.
The title, subtitle and coordinates line can all be changed, for a family name, a suburb or a date. Choose Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand to fit your space.
