Pageview, Gauteng

Pageview, Gauteng

Pageview is a suburb of Johannesburg, South Africa. It is located in Region 8.

Originally populated by non-whites including Cape Malays and Indians, it was commonly known as Fietas.

The area was cleared of non-whites by the apartheid government in the 1970s. Many homes were bulldozed, and housing for white people was built on some of the land, with large parts remaining undeveloped.
