Re-development of the Genoa Old Harbour

Renzo Piano Building WorkshopGenoa / Italy1992

A vast exhibition project that evolved into an urban renewal plan. The 1992 Columbus Celebrations presented a great opportunity to restore the long-broken connection between Genoa’s historic center and its old harbor, the Porto Antico. The regeneration project for Piazza Caricamento and the docks included plans to renovate several historic port buildings and construct new structures. Among these were the Bigo and the Aquarium, which soon became iconic landmarks, attracting visitors and revitalizing this part of the city.
