SUCH A FOUNDATION SYSTEM REQUIRES THAT THE GROUND WATER LEVEL BE KEPT CONSTANT. TO ENSURE THIS, THE RECENT CONVERSION WORK INCLUDED THE INSTALLATION OF A HUGE BALL AND COCK CISTERN WHICH REPLACES GROUND WATER AS REQUIRED.

THE BUILDING HAS BECOME A POPULAR LEISURE AREA WITH HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE GATHERING THERE IN FINE WEATHER, ESPECIALLY AT WEEKENDS WHEN DES VOEUX ROAD IS CLOSED TO TRAFFIC MAKING THE WHOLE AREA A PEDESTRIAN MALL.
