In 2013 Mepa approved planning permission for the restoration of the old power station in Floriana and its use as part of the cruise passenger terminal.

The old building is a composite of a number of buildings built over several periods and dating back to the 17th century. Perhaps some of the space could be used to showcase trendy Malta-made artefacts such as designer jewellery, fashion, perfume, ceramics and objets d’art.

It could be a welcome alternative to ‘souvenirs of Malta’ that are manufactured half way round the planet.
