Since I was passing the Cape Town Stadium and - for once on this rather gloomy Cape Town day - it wasn’t raining, I decided to snap a couple of pictures to track the progress on this architectural masterpiece, which doesn’t look anything like a Polo mint.
Although all the tower cranes have now come down, there’s evidently still some work being done on the roof, mainly by a solitary guy in an orange hi-vis jacket with a large Johnson.

Now that might not look all that impressive, but when you step back (or rather zoom out) and see the bigger picture:

Well, rather him than me.
You can see more pictures of Green Point Stadium in my Green Point Stadium set on Flickr.

That guy is working on the facade. Roof is pretty much complete.
I was watching the ant people up there too today. Except of course they’re smaller from where I am.
Did you get the toy working?

Looks like he has a safety harness on, has the Sa building industry gone soft?

Okay… so not a Polo mint… how about a minty Lifesaver then?
