Spotted! The Bellville Civic Center, in the heart of Cape Town’s northern suburbs, and site of many traffic accidents, as people lose their concentration when driving by, gaping at its timeless beauty and form.
Where it is? Voortrekker Road, Bellville | Map
What is it? It’s a gloriously superannuated piece of meeting hall, that’s what it is.
Who’s inside? Your Correspondent’s Lovely Assistant, for one, getting her LLB today! Hooray! Many congrats, sweetheart. Smooches and hugs!
Why would I ever go there? To support your Lovely Assistant, of course. If you don’t have one (ag shame!), then perhaps you’ll find yourself at a wedding reception, or a matric ball, or some other graduation.
What’s nearby? Downtown Bellville, Cape Town’s alter ego. Imagine the main strip of shops in a small American town, but set in the middle of a sprawling, chaotic metropolis, and you’ll more or less have the picture.
