Expo, the blueprint for the future of the area: public spaces and a great … – The Republic

To design it, the future of Rho-Pero, they looked at what happened in other international cities. As in Berlin, where a former Air Force Academy was transformed into a district of science with six academic departments, 11 research centers, 410 technology companies, and 140 media but also offices, hotels, shops and public buildings. And then London and its Silicon Valley, Silicon Roundabout as indeed he was named this pole high tech born in the east of the capital. To Moscow, and the ‘Skolkovo innovation center’: 405 hectares formerly agricultural 20 kilometers from the center housing laboratories, companies and start-ups. Concrete examples of rebirth. E models that Milan looks.

That is, a mix of research and innovation, public spaces and private capital, the fate of the Expo imagined in a dossier that the government has asked to develop the State Property Agency and Cassa Depositi e Prestiti. A project that, overall, would need a billion investments (plus 300 million euro of the value of the land) to become a reality and that is composed of different realities. There is the university town of the State and there is a technological district dedicated to businesses. But, and these are two new, next to the park facilities that would provide even sports facilities, sprouting a center for research in agro-food and a sort of citadel of the public administration that would bring together offices now scattered around Milan.

yet to be written, the story of one million square meters of Expo. But now, for the first time, there is an overall plan for the future of the pavilions. The document, 29 pages of analysis and economic planning, is on the table of the two main partners Arexpo, Municipality and Region, and will be evaluated at a meeting with the government by the end of the month. It is also the first step for a possible entry into the game of Rome. The executive, has always repeated the minister with responsibility for Expo Maurizio Martina, she is ready to lend a hand on the face of the future of the land. Also by the possibility that the Treasury does their input in Arexpo (the company that owns the land) as a partner. But first we must think of the project and share the hypotheses.

The idea came last April, when Martina has convened a meeting with all the actors from the Municipality and the Region State until Assolombarda that would take a Silicon Valley. All that day, starting with the mayor Giuliano Pisapia and the governor Roberto Maroni said they were interested to think of a common design. At that table they were also State Property and Cassa Depositi e Prestiti to which was entrusted the study of maximum. It is said that the future conversion plan, but it is an important base that has several functions. That’s what.

It starts from the university campus, which would occupy a significant slice of the area at the intersection of the Decumanus and the Cardo and would encompass even Palazzo Italy: this is where the State would transfer laboratories and classrooms in science , with lots of student accommodation. Around 250 thousand square meters of buildings. Cost of operation: 540 million euro. Of these, via Feast of Forgiveness could find 180 selling locations of City studies that would free up, another 200 would come from loans. 160 million remain to be found, but in this case could come into play the Cassa Depositi e Prestiti. In the scheme proposed by the rector Gianluca Vago there was a particle accelerator with an adjoining center advanced on big data, but at least for the time being not taken into consideration: the “Light Factory” alone would cost between 600 and 700 million.

At the height of Cascina Triulza here is the citadel of innovation: investing 220 million covered by businesses and companies interested in developing a Silicon Valley Milan. With a reality in most, a center of research in the agri-food that would be made by the Ministry of Agriculture through the Create, the new center was born from the union of different entities. A Rho-Pero, would be addressed mainly genetics and genomics and 25 million needed would come together into one location spaces scattered in Italy.

Clinging to the eastern part of the site, would rise a third citadel, one of the public administration. It is a plan by 220 million that accorperebbe offices of a dozen public functions by the State Agency of Customs and Revenue, the Accounting Office to the Guardia di Finanza and Nas. Source of funding: the money that now they go in holiday (28 million per year) and the sale of the barracks Doctors Via Lamarmora. To connect everything, the park must occupy

at least half of the site. That is how you arrive at that billion investment, not counting the money of the land: the ban went desert to the sale had a base of 315 million, but the final assembly of Arexpo has revised the value to 295. An important factor is time: the first quarter, the university would take the form not before 2019. For this we study a transitional phase to reuse some pavilions to leave alive.
