How to tell through a neighborhood the evolution and openness to the future of an entire city? Just explore Milan from here: Scalo di Porta Romana.

 

The neighborhood

 

 

Scalo di Porta Romana is the symbol of Milan’s evolution. Old industrial factories give way to cultural spaces and fashion hubs, making this neighborhood the vanguard of urban change in a city that never stops reinventing itself.

A day with… Federica Di Nardo

What will Milan look like in the future? To get the answer, Giorgio Terruzzi walks through Scalo Porta Romana, a true open-air laboratory. In a few years, in fact, the Village for the 2026 Winter Olympics will be built right here: 200,000 meters destined for buildings, services, parks. A full-scale regeneration – as architect Patricia Viel calls it – that will give the city a new center, where modernity is not opposed to history.

 

 

The other side of the stopover, in fact, has the flavor of old Milan, made up of trattorias and typical stores, such as Bonvini 1909, a historic printing house, recently taken over, that remains proud of its roots. Scalo Porta Romana is a growing neighborhood, also thanks to the cultural investments made in the area. Representative example is Fondazione Prada, a home for all lovers of literature, cinema, music, philosophy, science and art.
