Alexandra  Interpretation Centre / Peter Rich Architects
The Interpretation Center celebrates Nelson Mandela in the township that  was his first home in Johannesburg, when he moved to the city from the  Eastern Cape in the 1940s. In the heart of Alexandra, settlement  established as early as 1912 and currently one of the poorest urban  areas in the country, the one room house and yard are diagonally across  the street from Peter Rich’s new design on Hofmeyer Street and 7th  Avenue.
