The Food Hall: an area born from reuse and recovery
The Food Hall at the Central Station was born after a major restyling which made it possible to use disused spaces and to enhance the architectural elements, especially the most important ones.
In this way, this new area is configured as a important point of connection between the station and the city giving the area greater livability. Napoli Centrale is a very important and popular station in Italy, the third in the country for flow of travelers and is the most important intermodal hub in Campania. With this restyling and with the new 4000 square meter area it will be even more a point of reference.
During the works it was a part of Corso Novara has also been redeveloped and the works are part of the active operations for some time to give a new face to Piazza Garibaldi.
A step forward towards the characteristics of other European cities where the central stations are real shopping centers with advantageous consequences in economic terms.
