DESCRIPTION
It complements and connects to the three towers already under construction, extending Milan’s skyline while strengthening the district’s urban identity and freeing up ground-level space for parks and gardens. The tower hosts mixed uses: local shops and services, wellness and dining spaces, a hotel and serviced apartments, offices, and residential units. Each apartment benefits from an orientation that offers unobstructed views of the Duomo and the Alps.
READ MORE
The building is wrapped in a double layer of loggias, creating private outdoor spaces and a sustainable buffer between interior and exterior. Designed as an evolving structure, the tower adapts to functional and economic needs, offering flexible and high-performance architecture. With this project, CityLife confirms its ambition to transform the heart of Milan into a vibrant, open, and generous urban landscape.
