ProposalDescription: 

Section 27 Permit application for proposed alterations to the Upper Station building of the Table Mountain Aerial Cableway, Cape Farms 850 and 1068, Cape Town, Western Cape

Expanded_Motivation: 

Table Mountain National Park is proclaimed Provincial Heritage Site, but has also been identified as a Grade I site. While the cableway buildings have some architectural significance, they are not intact or of outstanding significance and have capacity to accommodate change. The proposed minor alterations will (a) improve the movement of trolleys and arriving visitors from the cable cars and (b) improve the views to and from the First Floor coffee bar and terrace. The proposed work will be confined to the1997 (MLH Architects) layer of the building. Whilst some of the existing walls will be replaced with transparent materials, the overall wall-dominated architecture will be retained, and the materials of the balustrades will match the existing dark materials that prevail here.
