The Runda Estate
Runda Estate is found in the northern part of Nairobi City and is dissected into almost 2 equal halves by the latitude 01.2130 South and longitude 36.8190 East. The landscape (topography) in Runda Estate ranges between 1,690 meters above sea level in low lying areas to 1,750 meters above sea level in elevated areas.
The area occupied by Runda Estate (estimated to be 14km2) was once a large coffee estate owned by various firms with 3 coffee processing factories. Runda Estate was started in 1972 by MAE Properties Limited. This was a demand driven project due to the fact that when UNEP Headquarters was coming up at Gigiri in the early 70's and there was an urgent need for decent houses within the area to accommodate the United Nations Staff.
MAE Properties Ltd (MAE is an acronym for Eliud Mathu, Andrew Zagoritis and Elia Zagoritis - who were the Owners/Directors of the Runda Coffee Estate by then) developed the first phase of the estate (Old Runda) between 1972 and 1980. These were fully developed houses, each on 1 or 2 acre piece of land.
