Significant infrastructure and road upgrades formed part of the development and the Boardwalk has been a catalyst for upgrades elsewhere in the Summerstrand area . A residential development , for instance , is under construction . Its architecture is complementary to the Boardwalk precinct and it has pedestrianised access to the area .
Contemporary Interpretation “ Our design is cognisant of integrating into the existing architecture and creating a streetscape that has developed over time . There are several pedestrian access points to the building and to the rest of the new offerings which serve to integrate the precinct into the urban landscape . It is quite something to be able to step out onto the beautiful beachfront promenade directly from the shopping centre ,” says Lahaye .
The contemporary interpretation was achieved with elements like the shape of the roofs and an aesthetic of a refurbished dockside building . The mall is curved , evoking waves and encouraging further exploration beyond what is immediately visible to the eye .
