Trieste’s ‘Porto Vecchio’ Linear Park
Firm
STATUS
Under Construction
SIZE
500,000 sqft - 1,000,000 sqft
Trieste’s ‘Porto Vecchio’ stretches for about 66 hectares on the city’s seafront, from the Ponte Rosso Canal, in the heart of the city, to the bathing area of Barcola, in a succession of large building volumes, originally used as warehouses for goods during Austro-Hungarian rule.
With the advent of new ways of transporting goods, the area and the 19th-century warehouses fell into disuse, unable to cope with the new demands imposed by commercial traffic, and the area remained abandoned.
The Municipality of Trieste has thus launched the Porto Vivo initiative, one of the most important urban redevelopment and reorganisation projects in the Mediterranean basin, which includes, among other things, the transformation of a huge, now unused area into an urban forest between the Karst and the city.
The project “Porto Vecchio of Trieste, the new renaissance of the city - Linear green park of industrial archaeology from the embankment of Barcola to the Historic Centre” envisages:
The creation of a sequence of green spaces supported by the longitudinal structure of the paths departing from the design of the existing tracks.
The creation of 6 thematic landscape areas marked by confrontation and coexistence, contained by two stretches of water at the heads and by some enlargements of the axis that are at the same time deepening, connecting and referential.
