The Old Granary building in Cape Town is getting a new name the ‘Desmond and Leah Tutu House’ in honor of the late Archbishop Desmond Tutu and his wife, Leah Tutu. The building has played many roles over the past two centuries, from a bakery and granary to a female prison, a custom house, and public works offices. The Tutus’ foundation partially funded a renovation of the building in 2015, and the upcoming renaming ceremony is a validation of their lasting imprint on the city.
