Trieste (TS) – Porto Vivo’s “Edificio 120”

The real estate property "Edificio 120", known as the "former refugees building", is located in the centre of Trieste, in the Porto Vecchio area, a district that once housed the port of the city, with its infrastructures, and which today is in a state of decay. The single-floored building was used until recently and is thus in fair general maintenance conditions. The historic building must be redeveloped, in harmony with the area, to accommodate commercial, tertiary and residential functions.

Risk profile

The building, a mirror image of “Edificio 119”, represents the access door to the base of Pier III. The building, developed on one level, consists of a single room, with a rectangular concrete layout. The mouldings of the decoration of the façade’s plasters and the aluminium windows, with lowered arch shutters, give overall quality to the small building. The roof is covered in tiles. Occupied in recent times, the small building is in good maintenance conditions. The simple structure, with stone masonry of good consistency, makes the building anti-seismic.

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 depth of the port basin is variable, 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 very close to 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).
