The area between Corso Regina Margherita and Corso Belgio is currently occupied by gasometers and some industrial sheds. There are also some “eclectic” buildings with a documentary-environmental value (small blocks of flats and buildings along Corso Regina Margherita). An overall functional reorganization of the current activities has been planned through restoration of parts of the existing buildings, their demolition and subsequent replacement with new constructions and functions.
The project includes the creation of a Hub for research and innovation, with over 9,000 square meters of new green spaces and pedestrian and cycling paths.
The center will focus on studies and research on methane, biomethane, and green hydrogen, actively contributing to the decarbonization process and the transition towards a more sustainable future.
