Abstract: | The proposal to locate the new parliament building at the site, having passed the bastion walls and entered the city, stems from a desire to create a vibrant urbanity at the entrance to the town. Urbanity lives by density, by the transparency of its ground floor activities and the mixed use. With this in mind, it is proposed to house, on the ground floor of this building, an interactive museum of Maltese history and political development. This shall be a place where visitors, Maltese citizens, young and old alike, students and tourists from all over the world, shall acquire an understanding of the history of the Maltese nation and the will its people to stand as an equal with all other nations, naturally within a Euro/African/Mediterranean historical context. |
