quotations from famous authors brim the walkway
Ravaioli Legnami is proud to have provided the materials for this long-awaited project resulting from the teamwork of Deltambiente’s designers. The architectural and professional value of this redevelopment project and the emotional bond between the company and Ravenna are a source of pride.
The walkway consists of a galvanised steel structure clad with Ipè deck boards. Ipè is a South American wood species appreciated for its resistance, durability, and high performance, even in humid settings.
The walkway is teemed with benches, trees, and decoration plants. A special kind of living room with reading stands displaying quotes about the city from famous authors like Dante, Byron, D’Annunzio, Montale, Pasolini, and Dario Fo.
a redevelopment project that opens to the sea
A harbour is the heart of a city. Yet, for over a century, Ravenna’s city dock was just an industrial area with no interest for the locals who didn’t work there.
This redevelopment project provides a strong identity to the area. Today, it’s a gateway to the sea and offers new liveable spaces where youngsters and families can gather.
