I learnt to swim at the Pavilion. My family have been walking along the Promenade for over 50 years. I grew up playing at Milton pool and I ve had hours of pleasure from the simple beauty that this stretch of land offers ALL CT residents, rich or poor. There is a global move to preserve 'green lungs'. Do we really need to sacrifice this for yet another shopping mall. |

I have already written letters about this abomination and will support you however I can.
I moved from the UK to SA and chose Seapoint because of the open public space along the sea and the way it is possible for everyone to use it.
I did not come here for malls and hotels. |

Property developers and corrupt officials need to stop destroying our beautiful city and rather go build in neighbourhoods requiring basic infrastructure development. |

Have we become so greedy to destroy the little pleasures that us human beings can enjoy that we can still call space with a view. The very people who have become blinded by their wealth that they cannot take with them is the very one's who's destroying our planet little bits at a time. Please we all have to die when no one knows..so leave what God has given us to enjoy and find your millions elsewhere. |

Why do you always want to take away open spaces where people can walk run and relax, we are so stressed out in this country that we need as many open spaces where we can relax and exercise which is good for the body mind and soul, do not let greed overtake the welfare of our people's health. We have enough emnpty shopping centres etc we do not need more and this area is such a wonderful tourist attraction for this Country. |

The Sea Point promenade is the one public space in the city where all people actually meet and interact. To restrict this space for the sake of someone's financial benefit, would be a travesty in this country that so badly needs this type of interaction. |

Public spaces are magical sites in a city where all can feel a part of a community. Developing this site for capital gain is a short term greed driven initiative, little better than the group areas act of the old Apartheid system in its attempt to distinguish people by income brackets. |

I run along the promenade most mornings (along with many other regulars) of the week and is one of the most fantastic views when running as well as no disruptions from cars or having to cross any roads. It woul dbe a shame to loose this wonderful asset for those who love doing outdoor exercise. |

I grew up in Green Point, went to school in Sea Point and spent most weekends and holidays on the promenade and pavillion. It will be a heinous crime to rob the community of this. |

| Tim Bellairs | Signed on: Fri 14 Mar 2008 15:28:00 UTC
I cannot imagine how developing the Pavillion area will enhance the area for the public benefit. It will create wealth in the hands of a few and rob the rest of us of one of the fast diminishing public recreation areas in our beautiful city. PLEASE DON'T DEVELOP THIS AREA ! |

What is the point of putting shops along the promenade when there is the V&A Waterfront Shopping Centre just down the road? You would simply be competing for business with them. Furthermore, you take away a huge tourist attraction and the beauty of the area. Do you think when people come to the world cup in 2010 that they want to see shops along the sea point coast? Some how I think not!
It seems clear that this plan is for the personal benefit of the Property Investors and not that of the community or this country as I don’t see the economic sense in a development such as this. |
