Piazza d'Armi di Milano, Urban park in Milan, Italy.
Piazza d'Armi di Milano is a large green space in western Milan with open meadows, wooded sections, and interconnected pathways. The park offers areas for walking, cycling, and spending time outdoors close to the city center.
The site originally served as a military training ground and storage area before being transferred to Invimit. This transformation from military use to public green space defines its present character.
The area accommodates multiple recreational activities and presents plans for the creation of educational facilities, including kindergartens and libraries within its boundaries.
The park sits along existing cycling routes and connects to nearby Parco delle Cave. Visitors can take advantage of its proximity to metro lines M1 and M5 to reach it conveniently and explore the grounds.
The site requires environmental remediation due to its military past and holds significant development potential. This transformation of a former military compound shows how urban industrial areas can be returned to public use.
