    We value and use the seapoint pools and promenade, and are appalled that they may be taken from the public domain

    Please dotn ruin the beachdront with these terrible developments, it took ages to nock the last one down

    i am disgusted that this project should even be considered it is wrong to take away public space which is so enjoyed especially for people who live in apartments.

    Even though I live at the opposite end of the peninsula, i visit Sea POint specifically to walk the Promenade from time to time. I would never go there to shop. I feel that the proposed development will remove one of the open gems of Cape Town that helps to distinguish it from any other urban coastal development. It would also remove publicly accessible sea-front space that is currently safe and one of the few places that Cape Flats dwellers can easily access the sea without visiting a beach, making it a truly 'democratic space'. It would be a travesty to destroy this for commercial reasons.

    Please preserve our kid's green areas! It is all we have, living in apartment blocks and already dence areas! We all use the Promenade daily, nannies on strolls, dogs walking, joggers, locals and foreigners! Please we beg you! There isn't another place like it in Cape Town, let alone South Africa!!

    The promenade must be preserved in its current state. It serves as a visual reminder of Cape Town's commitment to the environment and the promotion of sustainable communities.

    The promenade is one of my favourite places in the City and one of the few truly open, non-commercial spaces that everyone can enjoy. I feel good about the world when I run there.

    The development will only segregate our already divided city further. We need to leave places like the pools in tact where people from all sections of society can gather. Furthermore we need breathing room in the city! There are already too many developments.

    The promenade is an open space for the enjoyment of all. Keep it open.

    I was born in CT and visit often - please don't persist with this horrible violence on our open spaces. This action could never be effectively undone.
    ilana garlickSigned on: Fri 29 Feb 2008 08:26:00 UTC
    I go to the pool and I walk there often....i would HATE to see anything built inm that lovely open space.
    Rah BusbySigned on: Thu 28 Feb 2008 16:15:08 UTC
    Please make our open spaces available to the poor

    Here in the UK we have Listed Buildings - buildings considered worth preserving and protected from threats of redevelopment. Sea Point Pavilion would qualify a hundredfold for protected status for all the reasons stated elsewhere in this petition. Demolishing the good to erect the unwanted has never proved to be worthwhile. Stop this corporate vandalism now!

    Sea Point Pavillion is an international continental national and local treasure. It is a place of unsurpassed beauty where human building and nature are in harmony and the sea and rocks are never absent from one's sight. It is a space where the matters of the day are shed and one's person is invigorated and supported.  
    I have been coming to this pool for the last 56 years. I was ever mindful of the privilege that whites had in having this reserved space. Today I watch and join the pool with 500 schoolkids (Thursday 22) 20 something would be oil riggers, trawlermen and inspectors who cannot go to sea without certification. Each morning I swim with elderly people in the diving pool or swim with all the elderly and the young before they go off to work. As the mornings get cooler I will switch my swimming tim to the afternoon where the young and working people will swim in the pool. The new South Africa and the old South Africa plays and swims at the Sea Point Pool. Couples and families reflect the world we struggled to make, where people could love each other, marry each other and have children irrespective of colour and gender restrictions. They join the traditional coloured, african and white families on the benches on the lawns and in the pool. They swim together sometimes chattering and laughing and other times in silence.  
     
    It is shameful that the authorities even contemplate encroaching on this space. Sea Point Pavillion allows each of us to make happy memories.

    We don't visit Sea Point for the shops - we visit to enjoy this great open space - please retain this remaining beautiful part of Sea Point!

    I have been a privilged Capetonian for over 40yrs. This gem of a city has been systematically "raped"and stripped of its beauty - please STOP the madness called "progress"!!!

    There is no way that the seapoint prominade could be taken away! 
    It would be a great loss for the city

    Increasingly property developers are destroying the environment due to short-term greed. We as objectors try to preserve and conserve the natural beauty of Sea Point by opposing the encroachment of concrete jungles thereby alleviating traffic congestion.
    Kathryn EwingSigned on: Mon 25 Feb 2008 08:35:00 UTC
    This is prime public land and MUST be preserved for the use of all Cape Town citizens.
    Lynda CampbellSigned on: Mon 25 Feb 2008 07:53:51 UTC
    This area is used by many as a place of relaxationwithout having to dig into one's pocket. You know sunny skies , sea air and all Cape Town is renowned for. let's keep it together.
    Ellen Stork-ElmendorSigned on: Sun 24 Feb 2008 01:49:03 UTC
    I'll do anything to stop this monstrous spread of vulgar consumerism and exploitation by a few ruthless people, taking away one of most beautiful public spaces along the coast in Cape Town. This is for eveyone, not a few people who enrich themselves so they can live in exclusive places with uninterrupted views.

    I'm very glad to see that there are people out there trying to protect our incredible seafront space.Rampant capitalism is destroying our country and everything possible should be done to prevent it!We should be standing united and let our voices be heard as is in so many areas of our existance nowadays-we are not afforded the rite to object-before it is too late.

    I can't believe that this is even being considered. We might as well build a block of flats on top of Table mountain or knock down the Prison on Robben Island and build a golf course. It is absolutely ridiculous. stop it!!!
    adrienne judesSigned on: Thu 21 Feb 2008 22:20:58 UTC
    absolutely and unequivocally disaprove of any development in this area or anywhere along the beachfront between bantry bay and the radisson
    Nicholas von BroembsSigned on: Thu 21 Feb 2008 16:07:24 UTC
    These precious public spaces are invaluable and will become even more so as the city's open spaces are squeezed by developers.

    Stop destroying what little, precious open space the people of Cape Town have access to...everyone enjoys a glimpse of the sea and it restores the soul...we have enough concrete in our lives already!

    I object strongly to the proposed privatization of Green point Promenade. The proposed privatization is blatant robbery of an existing public asset for the profit and benefit of a few. This is immoral and must not be given approval for rezoning.

    Lizette PreissSigned on: Wed 20 Feb 2008 16:08:52 UTC
    Stop wrecking the seashores of the cape. We already have the waterfront. We DO NOT need more consumerism on what little limited beautiful seafront we have.
