The Mackenzie area in Larnaca is facing a serious cleanliness issue due to an abandoned seafront building that is filled with trash. The municipal authorities are trying to intervene and declare the building a nuisance in order to remove the waste. There is also a proposal for the building's demolition, but legal proceedings are ongoing. The building was announced as part of a large investment in 2016, but it never progressed. This situation has negatively impacted the image of the area, which frequently attracts tourists.
