Rivonia Square is the previous name of a shopping centre, including shops, the post office, a fitness centre and restaurants, along a thoroughfare called Rivonia Boulevard in Rivonia, Johannesburg. Late in 2012 the centre was renamed 'Oriental City'. It includes the area occupied by the first shopping centre built on the site – the Cloisters Shopping Centre. The Cloisters took its name from the Rivonia Convent, a closed order of Carmelite nuns, which originally existed on the site.
Famous quotes containing the word square:
“After the planet becomes theirs, many millions of years will have to pass before a beetle particularly loved by God, at the end of its calculations will find written on a sheet of paper in letters of fire that energy is equal to the mass multiplied by the square of the velocity of light. The new kings of the world will live tranquilly for a long time, confining themselves to devouring each other and being parasites among each other on a cottage industry scale.”
—Primo Levi (1919–1987)
