I progetti di rigenerazione urbana spesso riguardano l’attivazione di spazi pubblici ed ambienti pedonali. Il progetto “Recreating Identity” affronta il tema della rigenerazione urbana nel Nord di Lambrate, un quartiere a est di Milano, in Italia. Si occupa di valorizzare gli spazi pubblici e le attività sociali, rinforzando a fondo la struttura urbana per dare nuova vita ed atmosfera al quartiere ed ai suoi cittadini. Il punto focale del progetto è ricreare un nuovo senso di identità, basato sulla raccolta di varie caratteristiche esistenti di Lambrate. L’obiettivo della tesi è quindi rigenerare il tessuto urbano, creare uno spazio possibile in ogni isolato del quartiere, fuori dalle terre abbandonate o sottoutilizzate, per ricreare una vita sociale. L’approccio critico per affrontare la tesi è scaturito da diversi studi ed analisi svolte attraverso dati geografici provenienti da Milano Geoportale. Inoltre, le prossime politiche del Piano di Governo del Territorio (PGT) accompagnano la conclusione dello studio per raggiungere le strategie finali. La progettazione del progetto è scaturita da argomenti teorici accuratamente selezionati, una ricerca completa sulla trasformazione del quartiere nel tempo, analisi del sito basata sui dati geografici e ricerche sul campo, osservazione e precetto da casi di studio pertinenti e, infine, le linee guida del comune per la trasformazione di Lambrate. Il progetto si occupa principalmente di creare spazi pubblici possibili ed accessibili. Per raggiungere questo scopo vengono impiegati diversi strumenti, come una grande trasformazione delle strade, alterare lo stato di proprietà dei terreni abbandonati, suggerire nuove serie di funzioni per edifici abbandonati o sottoutilizzati, e ristrutturare o in alcuni casi demolire gli edifici mal condizionati in un migliore servizio dello spazio pubblico. Per quanto riguarda il progetto finale, vengono creati vari spazi pubblici con occupazioni flessibili. L’intero quartiere diventa completamente accessibile per pedoni e ciclisti. Spazi trascurati come il lungofiume o aree abbandonate diventano parte della soluzione. Il progetto affronta quindi gli aspetti tipici del Master in Architettura e Progettazione Urbana e si propone di mostrare una proposta di riqualificazione urbana del Lambrate Nord.

Abstract
Urban regeneration projects often deal with the activation of public space and pedestrian-oriented environments. The project ‘Recreating Identity’ faces the topic of urban regeneration in North Lambrate, a district in the east of Milan, Italy. It deals with, enhancing the public spaces and social activities, through reinforcing the urban structure to give a new life and vibe to the neighborhood and its citizens. The project’s focal point is to recreate a new sense of identity, based on collecting various existing characteristics of Lambrate. Therefore, the thesis goal is to regenerate the urban fabric, to create a possible space in each block of the neighborhood, out of the abandoned or underused lands, to recreate a social life. The critical approach to deal with the thesis resulted from various studies and analyses done through geographic data coming from Milano Geoportale. Moreover, Piano di Governo del Territorio (PGT) upcoming policies accompany the study’s conclusion to reach final strategies. The project’s design sprung from carefully selected theoretical subjects, a comprehensive research about the neighborhood’s transformation through times, site analysis based on geographic data and field research, observing and precepting from relevant case studies, and at last, the municipality guidelines for transformation of Lambrate. The project mainly deals with creating possible and accessible public spaces. To reach this aim. various tools are employed, such as a major transformation of streets, altering the ownership status of abandoned lands, suggesting new series of functions for abandoned or underused buildings, and renovating or in some cases demolishing the poorly conditioned buildings, to be in better service of public space. As for the final design, various public spaces with flexible occupations are created. The whole neighborhood becomes fully accessible for pedestrians and bike riders. Neglected spaces such as riverfront or abandoned areas become part of the solution. Therefore, the project deals with the typical aspects of the Master of Architecture and Urban Design and aims to show a proposal of urban regeneration of North Lambrate.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
