State of Cape Town Central City – A year in review
Having worked in global cities for a large chunk of his career, Manning is full of praise for the work of both the City of Cape Town and the CCID in promoting the NTE post-Covid. “Reclaiming this famed street for pedestrian traffic is at the core of the Upper Long Inner City Rejuvenation Project, which has seen the creation of dedicated spaces for pop-ups, beautifying efforts and, of course, urban improvements to attract visitors and residents alike. This all contributes to a healthier nightlife and resultant economy.”
CCID chairperson and Boxwood Property CEO Rob Kane is playing his part to energise the CBD night economy with SALT Market, a unique community-focused food and beverage offering on the ground floor of Boxwood’s flagship building, The Box. At present vendors stay open until 9pm with the aim of increasing the hours as the venue becomes busier.It’s not just the restaurants, markets and entertainment offerings that stimulate the NTE.
