Piazzale Loreto

It is an open, paved roundabout edged by mid-20th-century apartment and office blocks and serves as an important surface hub above the Loreto metro interchange.

As it stood in 1964
What Piazzale Loreto looked like in its prime.
A broad multi-lane asphalt roundabout with a low planted central island and raised curbs, ringed by mid-20th-century multi-storey masonry and concrete buildings with flat roofs and rows of small balconies. One corner is occupied by a modernist office block with a glass grid façade and a large yellow rooftop sign; other façades show brick and rendered surfaces with rooftop advertising hoardings. Traffic lights, road signs and wide radial avenues create an urban, vehicular silhouette.
