Regenerating Prà

Redesign started with Pra's buffer zone continues with infrastructural reorganization and housing interventions, extended to the hills. The new planned urban park will offer people a green public space, bike lanes, sports trails, new pedestrian zones and requalification of public areas in Prà and Palmaro old centres.

Villa De Mari restoration project includes co-housing and events areas in the park, as well as urban local services and temporary rent spaces attracting new inhabitants.

Via Novella will host public housing and sports areas, while replanted surrounding woods will offer social meeting and integration points.

Furthermore, both the ancient "creuze" (narrow alleys) and Sorgenti Sulfuree (Sulphurous Sources) Park will be restored.
