This is a renovated square in the historical centre. A large central space, a perfect setting for urban life; a multi functional, indeterminate and free. Steps accommodate and apply geometrical order to the trees and architectural elements such as ramps, stairs and ventilation towers, made out of naturally rusted corten steel, either punched or stamped with a floral motif. In the lowest point of the square a water fountain that doubles as a game for children provides a refreshing counter point and at the other end in the highest point of the square, a child’s play area was placed close to an area where seniors can exercise in the shade. The vegetation was doubled, large chestnut trees greatly changed the overall appearance. New lighting was installed that provided a higher level of illumination under the arcades making them safer at night and more adequate for all kinds of activities. Granite paving with different contrasted colours allows for a clear lecture of the topography.

if u still want to see it than visit it at day time because it is not a save place to be. they say that in that aria there is lots of drugs and prostitusion. and it is true
