[Image: 1967%20-%20Cape%20Town%20Vintage%20Photo...Street.jpg]

After the great interest in last months article on Cape Town in the 1970s, this month we feature Cape Town in the 1960s.

From the opening of Settlers Way, to a very empty looking Mouille Point, the building of the Golden Acre and the Disa Towers and a new Cape Town Railway Station.

Have a look for yourself.

Cape Town In The 1970s

Cape Town has changed remarkably in the past 40 years, and yet, in some places hardly at all. Long Street is still relatively similar and the Bokaap is almost exactly the same, the development up the mountain however has changed drastically.

Enjoy these photos of Cape Town in the 1970s.
