MIDI plc

MIDI p.l.c. is active in the development, disposal and management of property on two sites in Malta – Tigné Point and Manoel Island. Tigné Point is a residential, commercial and leisure development located on the north-eastern coast of Malta, approximately one kilometre north of Malta's capital Valletta. Development of Tigné Point commenced in December 2000 and comprises high-end residential units having a wide selection of layouts, including penthouses, duplexes and split levels. Furthermore, the development offers a number of cafes, restaurants, a shopping mall (The Point), retail outlets and extensive public spaces. Manoel Island is located on the north-eastern coast of Malta, approximately one kilometre north-west of Valletta. The island flanks one side of the Valletta peninsula and borders Sliema creek to the North and Lazzaretto creek to the South. The island's main features include Fort Manoel, an 18th century fortification built by the Knights of St John, and the Lazaretto, built in 1643, initially used as a quarantine centre and later as a hospital and Military base. Manoel Island is envisaged as a mixed-use development with low lying residential, commercial and recreational environment. Large tracts of the island, in particular around the fort, will be a green area comprising the provision of public footpaths for the enjoyment of the public and of residents alike. These large green areas will be integrated with other open spaces, including the ditch of the Fort, and with the foreshore around the island, that will be enhanced and made accessible to all.
