The construction of public housing type ‘coliving’ for young people in Ibiza has taken a step forward after the request of the City Council of Ibiza to the State for the reversion of the site located on Avenida Isidor Macabich where a new residential development is planned.
The request has been sent to the Insular Directorate of the General Administration of the State in Ibiza and Formentera, whose consent is necessary to register the plot in the municipal name in the Land Registry, where the State is listed as the owner, according to Diario de Ibiza.
The Local Government Board definitively approved the reversion of the site on February 21, 2025, after noting the non-fulfillment of the purposes of the free transfer agreed in 2020 for the construction of the new headquarters of the Insular Directorate of the State, a project whose works were never started.
The site, which for years functioned as a municipal warehouse, was ceded after the demolition in 2015 of the old Isidor Macabich building due to risk of collapse, while the Insular Directorate of the State continues to be currently located in the Casa del Mar, in the port of Ibiza.
The action is part of the municipal housing policy for young people included in the 2026 budgets, which provide for an investment of more than two million euros, with 2.37 million coming from European funds, for public housing and coliving projects, the rehabilitation of buildings and the conversion of commercial premises in different parts of the city.
