Glen Alpine, Vredehoek

Glen Alpine, VredehoekThis absolutely fabulous Art Deco block of flats is Glen Alpine in the Cape Suburb of Vredehoek.

Dating from 1939, Glen Alpine was designed by architect Dawood Jacobs.

The location is spectacular, in the foothills of Table Mountain overlooking downtown Cape Town.

    Thanks for visiting Amanda. I didn't see inside so it would be interesting to see what original features remain. I believe you can get holiday accommodation at Glen Alpine which would be one way to see inside.
