Cape Town’s central city development: A strategy of partnership and inclusion
The legacy of South Africa’s past continues to upset the country’s drive towardsinclusive and democratised spaces. This is particularly true in Cape Town, perhaps moreso than in any other city in the country, where the spatial divides of colonialism andapartheid contribute to a most unequal and segregated geospatial existence. In orderto address this urban challenge, the Cape Town Partnership developed the CentralCity Development Strategy (CCDS), a ten-year plan that calls for the densificationof the central city to re-plan Cape Town into a more liveable, inclusive, democratic,and sustainable urban space. By critically examining the role that inclusionary housingpolicies, public transportation, and increased economic opportunities play in a moresustainable form of urban development, this article emphasises the need to expandthe way in which planners approach urban design to take on a more holistic andpartnership-based approach.
