Trieste (TS) – Porto Vivo’s “Edificio 11”

Real estate compendium for warehouse use, known as "Edificio 11", located in the centre of Trieste, in the Porto Vecchio area, a district that once housed the city's port and its infrastructure, and which today is in a state of decay. The building, laid out over one level, was built in 1860, with the typical architectural connotations of a railway warehouse. The building, which has not been used for some time, is in fairly good general maintenance conditions, with some highly degraded areas. The historic building must be redeveloped, in harmony with the area, to accommodate commercial, tertiary and residential functions.

The warehouse, built around 1860, one of the oldest in the district, is close to the railway tracks and covers a covered area of approximately 3,000 sqm. The rectangular layout is punctuated by longitudinal modules, on each of which there is a gabled roof built on a wooden structure of twenty trusses and roof tiles on painted iron pillars. The building is made of sandstone and solid bricks with a single floor, while the internal dividing walls are in solid bricks. The presence of a single trussed passage determines the architecture and the interior spaces. The entire building is surrounded by a perron which facilitated the movement of goods.

The Porto Vecchio area is located in the central area of Trieste (population 198,417), and extends along the coastal strip between the town of Barcola and the Canale di Ponterosso (heart of the city); it is delimited by Viale Miramare and by the district of the central railway station, occupying an area of approximately 67 hectares. The port structures include five piers, four parallel and one oblique, forming as many basins, and approximately 3 km of quays. The settlement of Porto Vecchio is protected from the waters of the Adriatic by a 20-metre-wide breakwater which runs parallel to the quays for about 1 km, at a distance of about 130 meters from them. The depths of the port basin have a variable depth, with a maximum of 18 metres.

The construction of the historic buildings of Porto Vecchio took place in a period of time between the end of the 1800s and the early 1900s: their use was for the storage, conservation and parking of goods, from their arrival in the port to shipment and distribution to the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. Starting from the 1970s, there has been a progressive abandonment of the historic warehouses, as the main port activities have been transferred to the New Port, causing their slow degradation. The property is located about 300 meters from the “Trieste Centrale” railway station (3-5 minutes on foot), while the city centre is about 750 meters from the area (10 minutes on foot).
