Westlake, Cape Town

**Westlake’s **history is intertwined with military structures, civilian adaptations, and a rich past. The land that comprises Westlake was once part of an old quitrent grant ie a grant given to a person in lieu of their services in favour of Johannes Godfried Mocke in 1821. During the period from 1942 to 1944, several hundred military-style buildings and bungalows were erected in Westlake. Since the property was transferred from the Union Defence Force (UDF), it has seen various civilian uses, including a hospital, a technical college, and a mental home. Let’s delve further into Westlake, as it has developed into a bustling commercial hub.
