URBANISM Milano
MILANO MILANO CONNECTION Milano is an active and dynamic metropolis. Like any great modern city, Milano is also expanding to come across the needs and requirements that a central and important city as Milano has so support. The area where is going to be design the new urban scale projects has to keep in account the fact that Milano will expand. This area, as it was said before, is characterized by the present of the important system such as the Airport of Linate and the future TAV station which will influence the way people are going to use this space in the future. Another thing to keep in consideration is the Idroscalo, which is a place with some interesting potential aspects such as the presence of night clubs and sport facilities, but it has some other which have to be rethink because they are not working that well. Probably one of the first aspects that need to be redesign is the road
and public transport network to give a better usability to the Idroscalo. Another theme that has to be developed is how to make the area usable despite the big infrastructure that are surrounding the area. On the North part of the site there is the old Dogana with its huge dimensions that really creates a impassable system. On the South there is the Linate airport which is blocking any possible connection with the south part of Milano. On the East the Idroscalo which has the only passing point over next the Dogana system. The West part has too some big infrastructure that are blocking the usability of the area such as the Tangenziale Est and the Railway. Despite this is still possible, and necessary, to create usability in the area studding a different way of bringing people to it, like for example creating important attractive poles.
