Corviale, Social housing residential complex in southwestern Rome, Italy.

The Corviale stretches nearly one kilometer in length, consisting of a main building with nine floors and two parallel blocks designed for ventilation and light.

Construction of the massive housing project began in 1972 under architect Mario Fiorentino, but financial difficulties in the 1980s left parts of the complex incomplete.

The initial design incorporated community spaces, including a church, shops, and municipal facilities to create a self-contained neighborhood for 8,000 residents.

The building features five main entrances with elevators dividing it into six sections, while elevated walkways connect different blocks for resident access.

The fourth floor, originally planned for commercial services, became occupied by approximately 700 families who settled there without legal permission.
