The purpose of this document is to prepare an integrated approach to sustainable urban conservation through regeneration.

  3. Objective of the Local Implementation Plan Objective of the LIP (why a LIP?) • Integrated Planning and a holistic approach • Sustainable Development/Conservation driven objectives • Action Plan components targeting assets and sites • Spin-off Actions - Multi-disciplinary approach The area being earmarked and set by the project and agreed by the Valletta Local Council is the area of Marsamxett extending to the West from the area known as Il-Mandragg (Manderaggio) and to the East to the area known as the Dui Balli or (Deux Bali) stretching into the Arcipierku. In the centre of this area is positioned in the quarter known as Il-Biccerija (La Boucherie) and the Jews Sally Port. The area is endowed with tangible and intangible heritage assets. The fabric of the area is authentic and critical in nature with elements including; Romano Carapecchia’s Church, the Biccerija, a series of Churches and Chapels, the Auberge d’Aragon and the Auberge de Baviere, the old Hospital, systems of fortifications and palatial residential buildings. In the Grand Harbour Local Plan/ Valletta Local Plan the area GV03 and GV01 are marked as a Housing Improvement Action Area and a Residential area respectively. The Marsamxett area has been included in the Brief for St. Elmo and the Environs (MEPA 1999) and in the Vision for Fort St. Elmo and the Port of Marsamxett (MITI 2007) and it is earmarked as an area for regeneration and renewal as part of the integrated nodes for Valletta and the Grand Harbour.
