The Sea Point Promenade is a landmark of Cape Town. There is enough commercial development in the area, such as the main road of Sea Point, and the Waterfront! |

most summer evenings are spent walking along the promenade, it's such a beautiful way to enjoy our climate, and look forward to after a day in an office, we need space with fresh sea air to combat city living blues, not more money vacume spaces that encourage consumerism and increase people's carbon footprint. come now, moving backwards. |

Do not destroy our promenade for the sake of greed. It's a disgrace that it's even being considered. We will not let that happen. |

The planned building will cut off easy pedestrian access to the clifton side, when walking along the length of the promenade. In the same way the highway cut off the city's link to the harbour, this will cut off pedestrian flow. |

we should be increasing our public spaces not decreasing them!
when public spaces are rezoned they should be zoned for low cost housing not private development. government needs to check priorities!!! |

The role of local government and DEADP is to act as custodians of the environment for the benefit of the Citizens of Cape Town and the broader community, and not to permit short-term profiteering of commercial interests at the expense of our natural heritage and recreational amenities. If government accountability to the needs of the community and the City's own policy of protecting Public Open Space and the Metropolitan Open Space System prevails, this will result in a decision in the public's interest rather than favouring financial interests of a developer over public sentiment. |

I love to go and stroll along Seapoint. It is a beautiful open space loved by many. We do not need more shopping centres taking away the fabulous views and promenade that should be enjoyed by all. The additional congestion on the streets would also be a nightmare. |

We need to preserve our open spaces for recreational and conservation purposes. That is why Cape Town is South Africa's mother city after all.
A friend of mine helped with the conservation of dunes in Big Bay & Melkbosstrand a couple of years ago. When we drove past there a week ago, she was shocked to see that the area has now been developed right up to the beach and that the dunes have been destroyd. It has to stop somewhere, or we will not have a coast line left! |

I think it's shocking that they would even consider turning the promenade into yet another golden mile money spinner. Enough developments have shot up to deface our beautiful Atlantic seaboard. Rather spend a bit of money in sprucing the promenade up. I would be happy to donate to such a worthy cause. |

I spent 25 years in Cape Town and some of my best moments were going for long walks along the promenade. I think that it is an absolute travesty that they would take this away from Capetownians. Stop the madness! |

This is a totally ridiculous idea - the Sea Point beach front should be available to all the cititzens of Cape town for whatever they choose. It is such a scenic tourist attraction and to think they will give this benefit to an elite few is almost unbelievable. I am sure that would not happen else where in the world |
