Accessibility

3.2.1 pros and cons analysis

The pedestrian accessibility to the groundfloor is chaotic, since the steps are cut diagonally by the ramp. Moreover every plaza stands on its own with a very scarce relation with the other two. In fact there is a path connecting all the three courtyard, but it crosses the groundfloor of the towers which is closed and private. The presence of the ramp next to the low buildings creates even more fragmentation in the usability of the area next to the sidewalk on via Russoli.

PROS

existence of a unique path connecting the whole building

different levels between the groundfloor of the building and the street

elimination of the ramp next to the road
