DETAILS ON THE PROJECT
The masterplan project concerning the three remaining sub-areas of the broader Livorno Porta a Mare development is being managed by the design company One Works and is currently under review to align with the new urban planning regulations. Below, we present some key features of the three different areas:
- LIPS: this area will be primarily dedicated to tourism, hospitality, and leisure activities. It serves as a connection between the sea and the city and has been designed to meet the growing demand for accommodation related to nautical sports—in which the city of Livorno excels at the national level—as well as to serve the many users of the nearby shipyards and port. The project includes the development of a complex consisting of a hotel with 120 rooms, 60 serviced tourist residences, and a hostel
- MOLO MEDICEO: this area, surrounded by the sea on three sides, is suitable for a variety of activities, with planned uses primarily for commercial and office purposes. The project includes the construction of a public interest structure of approximately 600 square meters, “set” on a large rooftop garden. The entire design aims to ensure that the sea remains the undisputed focal point of the setting
- ARSENALE: also this area is surrounded by the sea and is the closest to one of Livorno’s main city streets. It is designated for the development of exclusive residences aimed at those who wish to live in the city center while enjoying the peace and calm that only the sea can offer. Approximately 4,000 square meters of residential space will be built across three modern buildings, carefully designed to harmonize with the nearby historic surroundings. The apartments will feature spacious terraces, and the complex will include a private green area for residents.
The necessary parking lots will also be built, partly underground, and partly on piloty and with the completion of the urbanization works, the areas will be connected to the city by roads and cycle-pedestrian paths.
