Property developer Anġlu Xuereb plans to build what he calls a "resort for the elderly" on an old industrial site in Naxxar, Simblia Gardens. I rather think that the emerging market for community residences for the cool and trendy older people will not entertain its clients being described as "elderly". Neither are they going to be drawn to the ugly box-like structures that we see in the illustration (February 28), a style of cheap and fast buildings that already blights most of the small island of Malta. The resort looks more like a last staging post with stacked concrete coffins, rather than a heaven on earth.
If only Mr Xuereb would wake up and check out the genuinely attractive resorts for "people of age" in the USA, the UK and even Mexico! And when is Mepa going to call a halt to the uglification of Malta?!
When is it going to stop people like Mr Xuereb building these grotesque and haphazard piles of concrete cells?
