It has started enablement work, marine works and infrastructure build under phase "zero" of the project. The three projects will cost R189.5 million, according to Growthpoint, co-owner of the precinct.

V&A Waterfront has also begun construction of a basement behind The Table Bay Hotel at the northern end of Breakwater Boulevard. It will spend R121 million on the basement, which has seen the closure of the open-air parking lots.
