We will lobby for the gardens to be preserved as this open space is also vital for visitors particularly children living nearby.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Knight said the association believes that the proposed plan is a positive step for the neighbourhood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEqually important is ensuring that space is provided for Pinocchio Cr\u00e8che so it can continue supporting the many children of people working in the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She said traffic congestion concerns must also be addressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe will advocate for a dedicated recreation area and for the retention of all existing trees.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The proposed development framework will incorporate 20% affordable housing (204 opportunities) as part of the broader mixed-use precinct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The development also includes retail, office and hotel space, along with strengthened civic facilities such as community space for a potential new ECD facility and public open space that could be used for parking or stormwater management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capetown.gov.za\/\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.capetown.gov.za\/\">City<\/a> said the plan includes protecting identified heritage elements, while specialist technical investigations are ongoing to guide development parameters, including traffic and mobility, environmental and heritage, urban design, and engineering and infrastructure capacity assessments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-next-steps\">Next steps<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the City, the next steps include finalising the technical investigations and land use applications while preparing the property for public disposal, redevelopment and auction, alongside completing all required statutory approvals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ ALSO<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/peoplespost\/va-waterfront-superyacht-marina-to-boost-jobs-tourism-and-tech-hub-status\/\"
