The planning authority has approved the redevelopment of Malex House into a new high definition studio theatre with offices and underlying parking facilities.

Malex House, a single storey semi-detached building with no cultural heritage value, sits adjacent to Rediffusion House, the recently renovated Grade 2 scheduled building that accommodates Public Broadcasting Services.

The authority also approved the redevelopment of an area measuring about 4,500 square metres, within the existing Farsons Brewery Complex, limits of Birkirkara.

The site is currently occupied by a reservoir, the roof of which is being utilised for the open storage of crates.

The new development will include the construction of a basement reservoir, a ground floor beverage packaging hall, an intermediate level for offices and two overlying levels of ancillary material stores.

The project will also include the installation of photovoltaic panels covering the roof area of the redeveloped building.
