Apr 27 - Gibraltar Heritage Trust, ESG And GONHS Publish Draft Document For Protection Of Key Views And Vistas
The Gibraltar Heritage Trust, together with the ESG and GONHS published a draft document proposing a framework for the protection of keys views and vistas yesterday evening.
A spokesperson for the Trust said: "The launch of our draft document on Protected Views which we have collaborated on together with the Environmental Safety Group (ESG) and the Gibraltar Ornithological and Natural History Society (GONHS).
"This draft document has already been presented to Government for initial views and we now put it out to public consultation and comment with a view to formally submitting it to the DPC as a case study and framework for protecting key views and vistas.
"The main purpose of the document is to highlight the fact that visual access to many of our iconic monuments and buildings is being lost behind the ever increasing number of high rise buildings appearing in Gibraltar’s skyline."
The Trust will be hosting the second of our quarterly debate evenings on Tuesday 3rd May, 18:30hrs at the Main Guard on the theme 'In your face? How high is too high for Gibraltar's urban landscape'. The event is open to the public and entrance is free.
