The Paceville skyline might be getting a new addition, as plans for a new 33-storey tower to be built in the locality have been submitted to the Planning Authority.
Replacing a number of derelict buildings on Triq Santu Wistin and Triq Elija Zammit, the project, which is spread on some 3,400sqm will limit its footprint to some 32 per cent or 1,100sqm of the site area, with a “sprawling open plaza” to be left open to the public, the applicant, PX Lettings, has said in a statement.
The tower will include apartments on its higher floors and a business centre on the lower floors of the building, as well as retail and restaurants spaces in the public sections of the plaza.

Plans for a 33-storey, mixed-use tower at the entrance to Paceville will rival Joseph Portelli’s Mercury House tower.
The project, proposed by Paul Xuereb’s PX Lettings, is being proposed on an area previously occupied by low-density villas on the road leading to the Eden Cinema, occupying third of the 3,400sq.m site.
Back in 2018, the same company had proposed a mixed-use 25-storey and a medium-rise of 11 storeys.
Paul Xuereb described the plans as a “sensitive answer to the contemporary challenges of Paceville’s development.”

Ħamrun football supporters breached COVID bar rules to celebrate yesterday s 2-0 win against Birkirkara FC.
A video circulating online shows supporters of Hamrun Spartans FC singing Inti Djamant by The Tramps in a crowded bar, while snapping photos with the club s president Joseph Portelli.
This is the second time that Ħamrun supporters were spotted celebrating en masse despite of COVID regulations advising otherwise. Last month, supporters flouted all social distancing and mask-wearing measures in a spontaneous celebration for their 3-0 result against Valletta.
Police have since confirmed that they are investigating the video to ensure that the footage was in fact taken on Saturday after the game. They further asserted that the establishment holds a snack bar license, and is in turn authorised to open in accordance to COVID-19 regulations.
