The Tram-Shed That Became a Sanctuary

Driving through Yeoville can be an assault on the senses - cars, taxis and pedestrians all vying for space...and that’s only on the pavement.
But if you need a break from the stress in the New Year, you can duck into the Yeoville Public Library at 51 Raleigh Street.
It’s a haven of quiet and books.
Plus there’s a fascinating connection to Johannesburg's heritage.
The building was originally a tram-shed and you can still spot the tell-tale signs of its earlier life.
