Capital Park is one of Pretoria's oldest and first suburbs and lies approximately 4 km north of the historic Church Square, behind the Pretoria National Zoo. The neighbourhood is bordered by the Witwatersberge on the south side and the Apies River on the west side. The neighbourhood extends from the Apies River to Johan Heyns Drive. Streets in the neighbourhood are named after early mayors of Pretoria. One of the former mayoral residences is in Capital Park. Capital Park was previously a very popular neighbourhood among Italian as well as Portuguese communities – the Portuguese Church is still in Van Heerden Street. The residential area today is cosmopolitan, with predominantly Afrikaans speaking inhabitants. The CPRTA functions as residents' association to look after the interests of its residents.
