“Esquilino chiama Roma”. Conoscenza integrata, condivisa e applicata per la rigenerazione urbana grazie ad una heritage community
Among the richest and most problematic districts in Rome, the Rione Esquilino is marked by very dense historical and archaeological evidence that highlights the city’s grandeur. Here, the complicated overlapping of monuments and late XIXth century urban fabric intertwines with a multi-ethnic social structure. This combines old and new residents, Italians and Europeans, tourists attracted by cheap accommodation, economic operators, mostly Asian and moreover engaged in non-legal activities, and numerous homeless.
