We already have far too few public spaces. We cannot afford to lose the ones we have. |

If the zoning is changed for this area, what is stopping the rest of the beachfront from being rezoned? |

Love the Promenade. Do we really need more retail space??? We are overrun with malls already! Let's look after the places in which people can do real and healthy things like walk and swim in the sea and talk and interact in the open air - aren't those more worthy pursuits than yet more shopping? |

This is one of my favourite places to take a sunset stroll. I think it would ruin the space and destroy a public area that is utilised so often. We have enough shopping malls and the waterfront is just down the road. Do we really need another one in such an amazing place? |

Let's not have any further development between the road and the sea. Cape Town is one of the few places in the world where you can still mostly have a scenic vista when you are driving. |

With restraint of opinion of developers who have nothing in mind except for greed... And aside from 'ruining' Cape Town, overdevelopment is short-sighted and makes fools of us all. We're going to run out of water and services are going to become scarce. Then what standard of life will we have? Perhaps the developers should be putting all their energy in to sorting out our townships, rather than overpopulating the seafront. |

Keep non-commercial public spaces open - people shouldn't have to consume to enjoy communal space. |

definitinely a NO to developers - we need public open spaces expecially for those communities and people who do not have access to public swimming baths. Already the Queenspark swimming baths in Woodstock was closed for no apparent reason! |

The Sea Point promenade is one of the last safe public olaces for our community. They cant take that away from us to leave us with two big buildings. Its insane. What about the people. They are just money sucking idiots who dont care about anything. |

We love our Promenade and it belongs to the people of Sea Point. There are thousands of other places to build shopping centres. It will be a dud as it will be boycotted anyway. |

it is a travesty that you are even considering doing this. the pool and promenade contribute an immeasurable amount to the city. do away with that and you are ruining an aspect of the life of the city that is treasured by its citzens and valued by visitors. |

The Sea Point beach front is one of the mostly widely used public spaces in Cape Town, with a very long tradition of a wide variety of uses by many sectors of the Cape Town community. Go for Green, let's ensure the Sea Point Promenade and parks are accessible to everyone. |

My family and I often use this space to unwind and really
savour the beauty of Cape Town and also to socialise. In this crazy time we live in we desperately need more of these calming spaces: not less. We certainly don't need another development favouring a few individuals. Please don't develop these sites. |

this planned development is NOT necessary - it represents a financial opportunity for a few that will negatively affect the lives of thousands who enjoy the promenade every day. the sea point promenade is a jewel in an increasingly homegenised city. let us treasure the open spaces that fill our soul with a sense of freedom that the new south africa is supposed to represent. |
