8 maltatoday | SUNDAY • 8 MARCH 2020 NEWS JAMES DEBONO THE prospect of extensive exca- vations in the vicinity of histor- ical buildings may still pose an obstacle for the development of a six-storey high residential project replacing the Times of Malta's former premises. In its reaction to the latest plans submitted by Hili Twenty Two, the Superintendence for Cultur- al Heritage has warned that "the proposed extensive rock-cutting is unacceptable in a UNESCO World Heritage Site" and should be "drastically reduced or elimi- nated". After withdrawing an applica- tion foreseeing more extensive development, the developers have submitted a new application which foresees the construction of three basement garage levels, 45 apartments and a Class 1A house over five floors and one re- ceded sixth floor. The original application pre- sented a year ago foresaw five basement garage levels, 50 apart- ments on six floors and two re- ceded floors from Melita Street, and a cafeteria. The Superintendence for Cul- tural Heritage described the pro- posed design as "a considerable improvement on that initially proposed in the first application." But the heritage watchdog is still concerned with the visual impact of the project, saying it will results in a considerable in- crease in overall heights and vol- umes on the highest point in the Sciberras peninsula. "Any change in the skyline at this location is not acceptable," the SCH said. The SCH is recommending that excavations are limited to moni- tored rock-trimming. While noting that the proposed excavation will spare under- ground wells which have been identified, the extensive rock-cut- ting would create a precedent for extensive excavation within an area of very high cultural heritage sensitivity. The Superintendence has also called for a rethink of the design through the introduction of step- ping, to lessen overall height and to follow the lie of the land, as well as a more traditional treat- ment of the balconies. Strickland House building is located within the Urban Con- servation Area of Valletta (a UN- ESCO World Heritage Site) and also in the immediate vicinity of historical and scheduled prop- erties, including the Auberge de Castille. The building was rebuilt in an austere style after being damaged in an arson attack by Labour party thugs in October 1979.
