Piazza Gino Valle

Project Description

The new square dedicated to Gino Valle, the focus of the urban development plan of the Portello area, opened to the public at the same time as the inauguration of Expo 2015. The square, the largest in Milan, can now be reached by a cycle path that starts in the CityLife park and which, crossing all the pavilions of the former Fair, passes through it projecting itself towards the parks of the western belt and the area dedicated to the World Fair. The general features of the square were configured by Gino Valle in the master plan that accompanied the urban plan approved in 2003, and it was then developed in a complete architectural project by the firm Valle Architetti Associati which collaborated with Topotek 1 for the design of the paving.
