What happens when you move the centre?
Sketched this in 2008. But how could Cape Town de-centralise? Isn't `the city' actually the historic centre? Isn't `the city' this entity that encompasses all below? Uptown is Khayelitsha, downtown is Tableview? We haven't changed the language we use. Cape Town was Long St, the Grand Parade, Buitengracht etc a very long time ago. Cape Town is now Klipfontein Rd, Lansdowne Rd, NY1, Thames Avenue, Modderdam Road, Voortrekker Rd as well as Long St et al. East City nowadays is the Khayelitsha Mitchell's Plain coastline. West City is Tableview Milnerton. `Cape Town as we call it today is the `old city'. nesce pas? Can we change the economics of the city if we change the way we see it?
