Kamra tal-Periti (Architektenorden) und die Kulturerbe-NGO Din l-Art Ħelwa stellen eine interessante Frage: Lohnt es sich, das modernistische Erbe von White Rocks zu retten? Malta will seine 35 Festungen, 50 Militärbatterien, 200 Bunker und 23 Küstenwachttürme retten. Viele fallen auseinander. Lasst uns sie ALLE retten.
"Eines in ein Restaurant umwandeln? Nicht über meine Leiche!" Aber White Rocks retten? Ein seltenes Beispiel britischer modernistischer Architektur der 1960er Jahre. "Oh, das kann man abreißen". Was denken Sie?

It looks cool
bro tear that shit down. the only thing it’s being used for is to hold filth, rocks, and provide an area for junkies to tweak out at. there ain’t a single soul that goes to white rocks to admire the “beauty of the architecture”
I mean im all about erasing the british from our history and culture but, if they restored them it would be nice
That visual kind of highlights how it is more beautiful as a ruin than as an active building imo. Really though, I cannot imagine why they would want to rip it down. I’m also hoping that by „park“ they’re not going for the lush artificial look….the nature surrounding it is true Maltese landscape, we need to embrace it rather than always looking at countries with ten times our rainfall.
Dafuq are you on? It looked and still looks as hideous as every Bugibba veleġġatura flat.
Run them to the ground, build an underground road/carpark/bus/tram terminus, and turn the surface into a park.
Knock it down !
does this count as urban exploration?
