    The promenade is one of Cape Town's most wonderful assets. It is a safe haven in a world of crime and it is the responsibilty of all those living in this beautiful city to protect this much loved treasure.
    Claire and Martin GrSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 21:46:18 UTC
    We completely object to the development of the beachfront. It is a place of tranquility and natural beauty which is a gift! It is of importance to so many sectors of our community and there are so many other places where people can shop til they drop! Please leave our beachfront just the way it is!!!!
    Gay FrenchSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 21:35:55 UTC
    this wonderful promenade needs to be kept for the public and 4 story buildings will spoil the whole area!
    judy KinderlererSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 21:21:37 UTC
    The pavilion is a classic 1930's swimming complex which serves all the community from all over Cape Town and international visitors.

    We need to stop this greedy overdeveloping of our beautiful coastline for the rich at the expense of the environment and the poor
    catherine wisdomSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 21:04:41 UTC
    keep some open spaces in this city, for goodness sake!!
    Rhoda KadalieSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 19:37:35 UTC
    The Developers are destroying the city, driven by greed rather than preserving the heritage of the city; green spaces for the public and develop in consultation with the public. Where the public is overwhelmingly against a development they view as detrimental to the well-being of the community, the developer is obliged to listen.
    Belinda OosthuizenSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 19:20:24 UTC
    Enough with the greedy & short-sighted developers! Leave our open spaces alone!
    Yolanda le RouxSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 19:11:42 UTC
    Myself and many people I know make use of the promenade in seapoint on a daily basis for relaxing outdoor activities. The promenade as it is, is a crucial investment for the wellbeing of all capetonians!
    Aviva SingerSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 18:51:12 UTC
    I grew up in Sea Point and am moving back there this year after 17 years abroad. I have such fond memories of the Beachfront and spent many good times there. I would not like to see it blighted by faceless high-end property development, as places like Clifton have been. Save the Beachfront for all the people of Cape Town!

    Public space must remain public - for all of us and our children's children.
    Sarah BaleizaSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 18:42:26 UTC
    The Seapoint Promenade Area should be kept as a public open space. I, and many others, regularly use this area to jog, walk, meet friends, enjoy an ice-cream, do tai-chi, play soccer, walk their dogs and kids , swim,sit in solitude and contemplate the beauty of our surroundings and feel a part of a happy, healthy multi-racial city. Where else in all of Cape Town can all this be done, within easy access to all the people and for free? It is also one of the few places I feel I can still do this safely. The beaches and mountain are no longer safe, especially early mornings and evenings. What makes the promenade unique is the number and great variety of people who use it, its accessibility to all and the fact that it still posesses somewhat of an old-world charm. Let it remain so. A mall can be built anywhere, but nothing can replace what this space means to so many people. Besides, do we really need another consumeristic mall?

    Where is civilization going if 'the fruits of the city' no longer exist? Please, this is so important for our phyci, don't let our beautiful city bacome just another concrete jungle! Please take the time and look at great cities like Sydney where urban design and landscaping has been taken into consideration, it makes ALL the difference. Not even to mention what it does for tourism. If you develop this strip, there is basically no strecth left for a nice long walk at the seside in the city bowl. It would be a very VERY sad day for all of us if you decide to do this...the beauty would be gone FOREVER!

    I fully agree with the sentiments of this pettition. 
    The City is being planned by irresponsible developers and informal settlers. It is now time that we and our municipal planners start to appreciate one of the World's most beautiful cities in the same way that our visitors do.

    The fact that we even have to sign a petition is absurd. Who would even consider rezoning these spaces in the first place?

    Leave our public space alone; it is ours
    M WienandSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 17:08:18 UTC
    NO NO NO to any kind of development on the Sea Point Promenade area.! Dont allow GREED to spoil this area which is there for ALL South Africans to enjoy. 
    If this project goes ahead it will be the beginning of the destruction of one of Cape Towns most precious amenities. attraction

    Johan MullerSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 16:48:48 UTC
    Given the number of people who use the promenade as commonage I am surprised this is even being considered.
    Robin BownesSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 16:38:32 UTC
    If we begin to allow the erosion of public land in Cape Town, how long will it be before other places such as Rondebosch Common, the Zandvlei Estuary and Wetlands, or even the land that falls within the Table Mountain Reserve becomes endangered by privatisation and development?

    Unsightly development is happening all along our coast line. Keep some tradition going. Shops and appartments do not need to spoil the locals fun.

    I live in Goodwood but work in the City Bowl and frequently take walks on the Seapoint promenade. I vehemently object to any development that would advance the already loathsome colonisation of Cape Town by materialistic values and super rich foreigners, and that would dispossess the people of this city of yet another portion of its natural gifts.

    WHY THE PROMENADE, THE PLACE PEOPLE LOVE TO MEET AND SHOP.

    save the public spaces
    B van der MeerSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 16:25:22 UTC
    The Sea Point Pavilion and adjacent promenade are and must remain PUBLIC areas, to be used by all and not a select few.

    People are destoying enough of cape towns beauty with high rise apartments which does not cater for all people from all walks of life to enjoy. 
    Leave the one natural beauty and what has become a heritage to cape town for us all to enjoy
    Gordon FrySigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 16:10:53 UTC
    Seapoint pavilion is a landmark and should not be demolished, sea point just wouldnt be the same without it
    Annari van der MerweSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 16:02:31 UTC
    The Sea Point promenade is one of the most attractive features of this city, a place where you can breath fresh air, enjoy a view over the ocean, walk, talk and meet people. Its loss would be immeasurable and prove that nothing but nakes greed and rampant capitalislm has come to rule our decision-making. What has happened to our community spirit?

    While presently residing outside South Africa we continue to take an interest in what is taking place in our country. We certainly support your petition for the preservation of public spaces.

    how are you going to develope shopping centres when you do not have enough parking areas and spaces for tourists, or are you going to have oil fumes going into all the blocks of flats. 
    let nature live with so many power cuts give the citizens space to de stress.
    Angela AschmannSigned on: Mon 28 Jan 2008 15:52:33 UTC
    Please do not destroy this beautiful space that is constantly enjoyed by residents and visitors alike.

    I love walking along Sea Point. It is always full of life with people exercising, walking their dogs or just relaxing. It is one of my favourite places.
