The enhancement of the historic centre, its archaeological and monumental heritage, and its environmental corridors guides a plan that rethinks established patterns of urban growth. The city's physical form and shared spaces anchor a project connecting urban development, ecology and memory. By revisiting plans from the 2000s, the project redraws growth scenarios and identifies a new urban centre that is both a focal point and a principal entrance to the Archaeological Park. Set within the urban green belt, the site lies where environmental routes and ecological corridors converge, giving it a new role in the Lodi area's cultural network.
