University of Cape Town ASPECTS OF THE ST RUCTURE, TECTONIC EVOLUT ION AND SEDIMENTATION OF THE TYGERBERG TE RRANE , SOUTI-1\VE STERN CAPE PROV I NCE. ABSTRACT A structural, deformational and sedimentalogical analysis of the Sea Point, Signal Hill and Bloubergstrand exposures of the Tygerberg Formation, Malmesbury Group, has been undertaken, through the application of developed geomathematical, digital and graphical computer-based techniques, encompassing the fields of tectonic strain determination, fold shape classification, cross-sectional profile preparation and sedimentary data representation. Emplacement of the Cape Peninsula granite pluton led to signi£icant tectonic shortening of the sediments, tightening of the pre-existing synclinal fold at Sea Point, and overprinting of the structure by a regional foliation. Strain determinations from deformed metamorphic spotting in the sediments yielded a mean , undirected A1 : A2: AJ value of 1.57:1.24:0.52.

Table Mountain National Park Position Statement: Tokai and Cecilia Plantations
Table Mountain National Park Position Statement: Tokai and Cecilia Plantations Date: 2016-08-30 The devastating March 2015 fires which burnt Upper Tokai plantation have refocused the public's attention on the future of the area. Over the past few months a range of letters, opinions, SMSs, advertisements and campaigns have been published and aired in the media and other platforms on the safety issue and status of remaining plantations in the Lower Tokai area of the Table Mountain National Park (TMNP). The facts pertaining to the harvesting of plantation trees are: 1. Tokai and Cecilia are not natural forests but commercial plantations established in the early 1900s by government to provide timber for industry. Fynbos was eradicated in these areas to make way for these plantations. 2. The decision to phase out commercial plantations on the Peninsula was not made by SANParks but by central government in 1999. As the then Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, stated in Parliament at the time “…a thorough, Cabinet endorsed process was followed that led to the decision to end commercial forestry at these locations, and assign the land to SANParks.” 3. The Minister also stated that it is not possible to revisit the decision to end commercial forestry as “…legal commitments are in place...” and “…neither is it considered desirable to do so.” 4. The plantations are not being removed because they are alien to the Cape; they are being harvested as a planted crop grown on a commercial basis. Furthermore, the plantations are not being harvested by SANParks but by a private company, MTO Forestry, which was awarded the public tender by then Department of Water Affairs and Forestry (DWAF) in 2004.

A Neighborhood in Change
A neighborhood in change A case study on gentrification in Bo-Kaap, Cape Town Emilia Lundqvist & Matilda Pettersson Stadsbyggnad, stadsutveckling och planering / Urban Development and Planning. Kandidatuppsats, 20 HP Vårterminen 2020 Handledare: Defne Kadioglu 1 A special thanks to SIDA for providing us with a scholarship that made it possible for us to do our research in South Africa. Thanks to Hoai Anh Tran for supporting us when applying for the scholarship. And the biggest thanks to our supervisor Defne Kadioglu for providing us with much needed help during our difficult times. Our original plan was to do an 8 weeklong case study in Bo-Kaap, but because of Covid-19 and the impact that the pandemic has had on both the Swedish and the South African societies, this has affected our case study. We were forced to leave South Africa five weeks prior to our original plan. Because of this we had to make several of our interviews online which may have affected our end result. 2 Abstract When neighborhoods and cities fall in decline, cities and investors see an opportunity to turn the declining sites into profitable new projects, this happens all over the world in different renewal projects, or under the term gentrification. The outcome of gentrification can be considered to be both positive and negative, and the term is widely discussed in today's media. This study aims to get an understanding of how a small neighborhood in Cape Town called Bo-Kaap, that is famous for its rich culture and strong community, is affected by investors wanting to develop the neighborhood.

Understanding the Landscape Figure 3
chapter 1 Understanding the landscape Figure 3. The Cape Town landscape viewed from the sea. The prominent vertical sandstone cliffs rise to the east as the sharp Devil’s Peak and to the south as the flat-topped Table Mountain. The rounded knob of Lion’s Head and softly rounded Lion’s Rump (Signal Hill) above Sea Point and the V&A Waterfront lie to the west. 12 Mountains rising up from the Flats Whether you are approaching Cape Town from a ship at sea, descending to land in an aircraft or driving in along one of the national motor routes, Table Mountain makes the first and most striking announcement of your arrival. What makes Table Mountain so impressive is the near-vertical relief of over 1 000 m as it rises from the sea to a top that from most approaches looks nearly flat, as if a large block of Earth had popped up from below (Fig. 3). In strong contrast, and emphasising the flat mountain top, are the nearby Devil’s Peak to the east and the rounded knob of Lion’s Head, separated from Table Mountain by the deep Kloofnek saddle. Once you are in Cape Town, there are many good vantage points for viewing the surrounding landforms (Fig. 4). Most of these viewpoints are easily reached by car, such as the top of Signal Hill, Tafelberg Road beyond the cableway station, Rhodes Memorial above Rondebosch, or Bloubergstrand with its overviews of Table Mountain across Table Bay. But the best views are to be had from outside the car, and there are many hiking trails at all levels of altitude and difficulty within easy reach of Cape Town, from which to take in the scenery.
