Entry no.28 - Industrial Sector G
TakemeThere posted a City Journal entry in Pretoria Metropolitan Area
Industrial sector G is one of 5 large industrial areas built in Pretoria. More than 90% of Dresden's industry is located here and it employs 12,061 people. The map below shows the juxtaposition of each sectors within the region. As seen in entry's 22 & 23, the region's largest power plant is located in this sector. A medium sized traditional port with only a small intermodal facility is also located adjacent to the south shore of Cisco Bay. This entry however will focus on the industrial zone located between the port and downtown Dresden. Industrial Sector G overview - not including the Port(beyond the upper left) & Power Plant(beyond the upper right) I'll be taking what I think is a unique approach in this entry. Instead of just showing random locations I'll preview each industrial facility one-by-one in order of the largest employee base - so as to better help you find suitable employment of course! The employee count is the total amount of sims that actually travel to the building in question for work. Dresden's 25 largest industrial employers (not including government or infrastructure related facilities) 1 Company - Gusslov Pipelines Inc. Business Type - Pipe Mill Address - 80 Portland Rd.

But even if you are not successful in your job application(s) with any of those companies there are still dozens of other potential employer who may want to hire you, so keep at 'er. Of course, if you actually have some big bucks in your pocket already and don't need to look for a menial job why not buy a property instead? This lot at 61 Pincer St. is now available after a company by the name of dead paper products literally went dead. The factory was demolished 2 years ago and the lot has remained empty ever since, just waiting for a willing buyer to come along and redevelop it. So why not take a chance? Granted it's located near a lot of nasty chemical manufactures, boxed in by a busy freight rail corridor and built on uneven ground but don't let that deter you! To conclude this already ridiculously long entry here's a couple mosaic shots for the road. M1 M2 M3- 24 Comments
