Project Description

CityLife is the redevelopment project of the former trade fair area of Milan. Designed by the three internationally renowned architects Zaha Hadid, Daniel Libeskind and Arata Isozaki, it creates a residential, commercial and business district located not far from the old city centre of Milan, involving an area of 36.6 ha. CityLife complex constitutes one of the largest urban intervention areas in Europe, with a balanced mix of private and public services.

Key Features

The project involves the construction of three skyscrapers, with dedicated areas for offices, shops, restaurants and services. The luxury residential area covers about 164.000 m², with around 1.300 apartments (housing about 4.500 people).

In addition, more than 50% of the available area, 170.000 m², is dedicated to green spaces. There are also underground parks for around 7.000 vehicles.

Further to the existing public transportation network, CityLife area is served by a new extension of the metro line 5, with a dedicated station at the centre of Piazza Tre Torri.

The Towers within CityLife have received LEED certification from the US Green Building Council (USGBC).
