PIAZZA VERBANO NEIGHBORHOOD

QUARTIERE DI PIAZZA VERBANO
1925/31 Dario Barbieri for the National Institute for the Houses of the State Employees on the area of the park of VILLA LANCELLOTTI 
The buildings on Via Chiana were designed by Quadrio Pirani (1878/1970) 
2,000 homes for about 10,000 people
“The architecture is very austere and does not offer a particular interest except in the buildings designed by Quadrio Pirani along Via Chiana, but the overall environmental quality testifies of how the city could have developed, even in its most densely built areas, if the indications of the 1909 plan of Edmondo Sanjust di Teulada had more often found similar forms of application” (Piero Ostilio Rossi)
