Palazzo Luraschi, Historical palace on Corso Buenos Aires, Milan, Italy

The six-story Palazzo Luraschi features stone balconies and displays architectural elements from the late 19th century on its facade at Corso Buenos Aires number one.

Engineer Ferdinando Luraschi commissioned architect Angelo Galimberti to design this building in 1887, incorporating columns from the former Lazzaretto of Milan in its courtyard.

The courtyard contains medallions depicting scenes and characters from Alessandro Manzoni's novel The Betrothed, connecting the palace to Milan's literary heritage.

The ground floor of Palazzo Luraschi housed various businesses throughout its history, including the restaurant Puntignam which operated from 1888 to 1940.

The palace exceeded the local height restrictions of three stories, breaking the 'servitu del Resegone' law that protected views of Mount Resegone from Milan's city walls.
