Central Business District
Cape Town CBD in the City Bowl is a major business district in Cape Town’s metropolitan area and a financial centre of the Western Cape and South Africa. The South African parliament is located in Plein Street, and is the seat of government for six months in the year. The Western Cape provincial government and City of Cape Town metropolitan municipality also have their head offices in the Cape Town CBD.
This district’s inner-city shopping space is currently undergoing a change. The Old Mutual Centre,[1] on the corner of Strand Street and Adderley Street, is being transformed into The Mutual. Anchored by Checkers, Checkers Liquor and Mr Price, the new centre is scheduled to open in April 2024.[2] It will be situated by one of the busiest public transport interchanges in the Cape Metropole with Cape Town Station Deck being a hub for approximately 200,000 daily commuters.[3]
Foreshore Freeway bridge
The Foreshore Freeway Bridge has stood in its unfinished state since construction officially ended in 1977. It was intended to be the Eastern Boulevard Highway in the city bowl, but is unfinished due to budget constraints.
