Trieste (TS) – Porto Vivo’s Warehouse 25

Real estate property for warehouse use, known as "Warehouse 25", located in the centre of Trieste, in the Porto Vecchio area, a district that once housed the city's port and which today is in a state of decay. The building, of historical interest, was built in 1893 and is in poor general maintenance conditions, with some highly degraded areas. The building must be redeveloped, in harmony with the area, to accommodate commercial, tertiary and residential functions.

The building, dated 1893, has a rectangular layout of 19.25 x 114.6 m and is divided into three floors above ground, with a height of approximately 12 m; the building is adjacent to Warehouse 24 to the south and Warehouse 26 to the east, while on the north side an asphalted square can be found.
Born as a fuel depot, it was later used as a terminal for live animals; after having hosted in some of its rooms offices and laboratories of the Nautical Technical Institute of Trieste, the property is currently in disuse. The state of conservation is overall mediocre, with some areas presenting a very bad maintenance status, and is therefore unusable, although accessible in all its parts.
The structure is built with thick sandstone load-bearing walls, while the internal partitions are mostly made of stone, with some brick partition walls. To ensure the capacity of the warehouses, the ground floor structure is characterized by the presence of stone columns, on which cast iron columns rest. The vertical connection, in a sufficient state of conservation, is guaranteed by a non-functioning freight elevator and a stone stairwell supported by an iron structure. The roof consists of two reinforced concrete slabs arranged on two slopes.
In the subsequent use as school premises, systems were added and small rooms were created, characterized by ceramic floors and aluminium and single-glazed windows.

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 near the “Trieste Centrale” railway station and the historical centre of the city.
