Social oriented design for disuses buildings. The case study of MR
The MR (Magazzini Raccordati) complex of Milan Central station represents
one of the most impressive landmarks in Milan: it is extended for over one
kilometre along two sides facing the street, rhythmed by more than one
hundred of storages. Such system, left in a persisting state of abandonment,
has a negative influence over the contextual urban fabric. An intense design
studio activity has been carried on at Politecnico di Milano over the presented
case study, taking it as an opportunity to develop a methodology to approach
design for built heritage with innovative architectural and socio-economic
models through participated processes and social aggregation mix

Often urban planning instruments are not properly equipped with tools capable of managing the complexity of historic cities. The book fills a gap in the implementation of urban transformation, taking into consideration the urgency to protect sensitive and fragile parts of the historic city. The heritage-based tools are experimented with by using a unique case study in the Armenian context: the city of Gyumri and its historic center that, after the 1988 earthquake, suffered from a progressive degradation of its historical heritage. The book serves as a support for the implementation of the planning and regulation for the specific case study and as a methodological approach for planning the historic centers, replicable in other Armenian old cities and similar cities outside Armenia. It provides a framework for protecting the historic environment and buildings, as well as a tool for urban identity protection and a driver for economic development. The practical guidance also offers suggestions to inhabitants and technicians who must deal with the preservation of buildings and open spaces
