Figs. 2.35 & 2.36: Kalk Bay panorama 1901, (Schafer & Co. & SA Ill. Mag 1901). Quite
likely taken on same day as one from mountain (Fig. 2.4). In foreground Die Dam area.
Buildings of note: Washhouse 1901, Mosque 1902, van Blerks cottages 1865, King’s
Hotel 1882; junction of Gatesville – Belmont roads.
Today: Closely packed mix of buildings old and new, small and large, linked by narrow
roads some cobbled and often bordered by stone walls; few formal open spaces. Former
wash-house area is Lever St Park. Photo taken from McRobert Heights.
