Changes have been made to ameliorate the design of a massive five-storey block of 72 apartments on Naxxar’s quaint Pjazza Ċelsi, by the former trade fair building.
But as re-proposed, after being sent back to the drawing board by the Planning Authority board, the project will still drastically alter views of the village core from the former trade fair area, as confirmed by the latest set of photomontages presented last week.

The Planning Authority board has sent plans for a five-storey block in Naxxar back to the drawing board after the majority expressed their concern on its impact on Naxxar’s urban conservation area.
The development proposed by Charles Camilleri consisted of a five-storey development of 72 apartments in a 3,141sq.m open field by Naxxar’s Pjazza Celsi, right by the former trade fair grounds and 150m away from the historic Palazzo Parisio.
