The Naspers Centre is a 93-metre (305 ft) skyscraper in Cape Town, South Africa. At its completion in 1962, it was the tallest building in South Africa (fourth tallest in Africa). An electronic news feed used to be displayed on the exterior of the building which would become visible at night.[1] The building serves as the head quarters of the South African multinational media company Naspers.
