Urban Scale

Main Reef Road


Towns, open spaces, water bodies and arterial routes along Main Reef road, passing the site.






The site is a void between Melville Koppies Nature Reserve and Albert’s Farm Nature Reserve. This provides another layer to the site, to link the nature reserves through a programme on/in the site. The site is also adjacent to the north of Westbury, which is currently undergoing an Urban Design upgrade. One significant part of this upgrade is along the road which extends into Newlands, and along the western edge of the site. This could be seen as a catalyst or finger on which to intervene at an urban scale.
