A major achievement for our team:
One on York Retail was delivered in time for its opening on 30 July 2026! 👏

Only three weeks before opening, completing the project on schedule looked increasingly difficult. Through focused leadership, careful coordination and an exceptional team effort, the challenge was met.

Situated next to the new Mediclinic in York Street, George, One on York is a R170 870 553 retail and medical development delivered for LYNX Real Estate.

The project started with the demolition and removal of the existing buildings, services and infrastructure. From this cleared site, the team delivered a three-level development featuring parking, retail and restaurant spaces, plant and service areas, and specialised medical facilities.

Tenants and healthcare providers include Dis-Chem, Mugg & Bean, Intercare, Eden Oncology and Mediclinic Doctor Suites.

The achievement is even more significant considering the severe weather experienced across George and the Garden Route in May. Heavy rainfall, flooding and damaging winds placed additional pressure on the final stages of delivery.

We are immensely proud of the project team who made this possible:

Area Manager: Theo Wessels
Contracts Manager: Morne Olivier
Construction Managers: Christoff Vos and JC vd Linde
Quality Controller: Thandeka Vabaza
Commercial Manager / Senior QS: Francois Vlok
Site QS: Minke Kruger and Mokhobo Moso
Safety Officer: Simphewe Ntshangase
Safety Representative: Gerald Mokhoantle
Site Administrator: Yolandie Langeveldt
Supervisors: Andre van Zyl, Debbie Goeiman, Rico Africa, Tebogo Mametsha, Daniel Sekele, Hendrik Seipelo, George Sotyato, Jannie Smuts, William Chimgobva and Warren Don

Thank you to LYNX Real Estate, the professional team, subcontractors, suppliers and every team member who contributed to this successful delivery.

Congratulations to everyone involved; this is an achievement worth celebrating!

Community Strong After the Storm 💙

Following the severe storms that impacted George this past weekend, the Ruwacon team joined forces with Outeniqua Superspar and members of the local community to assist with cleanup operations across affected areas.

From clearing fallen trees and removing debris to helping clean streets and public spaces, it was inspiring to see the George community come together to restore our town after the damage caused by the strong winds.

A sincere thank you to every volunteer, team member, and community partner who contributed their time and effort. Together, we showed what can be achieved when a community stands united.
