It was situated in the area between today's suburbs of Hochland Park and Pioneers Park. Upon the creation of the neighborhood in 1912 by the Windhoek City Council, all Black residents of other areas of the city were moved to the Main Location.

Administration of the area was split between Black local residents and White residents from elsewhere.
