The city of Genoa, in the region of Liguria, lives with and by the Mediterranean. And it’s time to make the sea a protagonist once again. Thanks to the Waterfront of Levante project by Renzo Piano.

Giving the sea back to Genoa

“I hope Genoa can reappropriate of the sea,” Piano said, “the water will win over the concrete.” Indeed, this is an eco-friendly walk that unites the city, focusing on its relationship with the Mediterranean. The buildings of the Waterfront will be zero emission, also thanks to solar panels. Even the glasses and windows will be sustainable and light.
