Italy: The San Donato neighbourhood

Location: Florence, Italy

Located in Novoli, periphery of Florence, the site was until the 1990s an industrial area characterised by the presence of plants of the automobile firm FIAT and residential quarters for factory workers.

Today the neighbourhood is at the centre of a wide urban redevelopment project that aims to convert the area into a metropolitan service centre and transport node. The case study allows for the evaluation historic heritage layers of material heritage and associated values and their impact on neighbourhood identity, in the context of a fast-changing and intense development urban area.
