The Park occupies the place of the ancient Piazza d'Armi. It was initiated
in 1980 according to the designs of Architect Alemagna. It is a Romantic
style park with English style organization. It became, from the time of its
opening, a centre of public initiative for expositions such as the
re-uniting Exhibition of 1894 and the International Exhibition of 1906 from
which remains the functioning Aquarium pavilion. At its borders rises the
Art Palace, built in 1931 by design of Architect Giovanni Muzio, the centre
of the Triennial of Milan and the Park Towers, planned in 1933 by Gio Ponti.
It is bordered by the Castle, the arena, the Peace Arch, and the North
Railway yard. |
