Urban Springs

Our Urban Park in Green Point is fed by springs from the slopes of Table Mountain -- in fact, springs which lie in the suburb of Oranjezicht, where I live. OBSERVATION: These springs originally fed the grachts (the waterways) of Cape Town, which today no longer exist, except as street names. There has been talk of restoring the grachts. I don't know how close that might be to realisation.
