The CityLife Project.

CityLife is the name of a redevelopment project of the historic neighborhood of Fiera Milano with an offer of 523 million euro. The winning project was designed by Arata Isozaki, Daniel Libeskind, Pier Paolo Maggiora and Zaha Hadid.

The project involves the construction of three skyscrapers called Il Dritto (The Straight One), Lo Storto (The Twisted One) and Il Curvo (The Curved One). In addition more than 50% of the area to be redeveloped (143,000m2) will be devoted to a park, characterized by waterways and will also host a building dedicated at the Museum of Design. The residential area will occupy about 148,000m2, consisting of 1,300 apartments (housing about 4,500 people) in high-rise buildings up to 20 floors. Finally, there will be parking for 9,400 vehicles located in underground facilities.

Work on the project, begun in 2007, will be completed by 2014.
