Naples Unveils Ambitious €700 Million Regional Headquarters Project
Vincenzo De Luca highlights 'Il Faro' as a transformative initiative for the Campania region.
In a significant development for the Campania region, Vincenzo De Luca, the governor of Campania, has introduced 'Il Faro', a new infrastructure project that encompasses the construction of a central headquarters for the regional government in Naples, with a total investment of €700 million.
This initiative is part of a broader plan aimed at revitalizing the area around Piazza Garibaldi.
De Luca described 'Il Faro' as a remarkable piece of contemporary architecture, emphasizing its importance as a symbol of modern identity for Naples and Italy as a whole.
The project includes the underground rerouting of the Eav railway from Porta Nolana to Corso Lucci, as well as the establishment of a public park on Via Galileo Ferraris, where the headquarters will be located.
He noted that the design is intended to prevent isolation and foster connectivity, with plans for a link road to the Centre Direzionale.
During the unveiling at the Stazione Marittima, De Luca asserted that this initiative is vital for consolidating regional offices, which are currently spread across multiple locations in Naples, leading to annual rental costs between €7 and €9 million.
He labeled this arrangement as 'unsustainable' and expressed the need for a central location to alleviate traffic congestion, while also bearing environmental considerations in mind.
The project aims to create a sustainable public park surrounding the new headquarters, which will also feature a 700-space underground parking garage, bus stops, and intermodal transportation links, integrating rail, metro, and bus services.
De Luca emphasized that the initiative is geared towards instilling confidence in the younger population, asserting its potential to provide hope for the future and the creation of a modern identity.
The design of the new buildings has been coordinated with the regional heritage authority to ensure compatibility with the surroundings, and 'Il Faro' is set to be a landmark with views extending from the Vesuvius to the Campi Flegrei and out to the sea.
Planned features include a large conference hall, a cinema, and commercial spaces, further underlining the project’s multifunctional aspirations.
