The area of intervention is property of the Municipality and located in Milano, in via Merezzate. The plot is part of the Rogoredo district, an important node in the metropolitan relations of the South-East area of Milano, located on the North-West side of the area Santa Giulia, in a context characterized by the presence of important infrastructure like the F.F.S.S. train station, the MM of Rogoredo, the exit of Piazzale Corvetto from the Tangenziale Est and the future entrance in the city for the SS Paullese. The intervention is divided into 7 private plots, of which 5 will be realized by InvestiRE (UdC 1,3,5,6 and 9) and 2 from other operators (UdC 2 and 4), the primary and secondary work for the urbanization of the area and the works of common interest (Education plexus UdC 8). The Agreement forces the parts involved to realize the intervention of new building for edilizia convenzionata in cessione, also intervention of edilizia convenzionata for renting, part with canone convenzionato and part with canone sociale, for a total of 50.495,05 m² of GBA of which 38.920,74 m² of GBA realized by InvestiRE.

A total of 608 m² ohousing units will be realized (together with their parking spaces) with different typological mix, the execution of an underground basement where cellars and private parking will be located, alongside with the power plants.

The area is enclosed by via Antegnati, via Gabussi and via Vincenzo Amidani, in the point where the Parco Agricolo Sud goes deep into the urban area.
The initiative consists in the definition a new function for the existing complex of via Antegnati; this is made of 5 buildings with 3-4 storeys out of the ground and a common underground basement, realized only to the phase of the structure, in order to complete 500 housing units for housing (edilizia residenziale convenzionata agevolata) for selling and renting, up to a total of 33.610 m² of GBA.

The ground floor of the buildings will provide the big urban environment to the complex, characterized by meetings, spaces for relax, for sport, and with both private and public spaces. A public path will articulate through the buildings to create a ground floor entirely accessible with outdoor food areas, playgrounds, sitting places, green areas and spaces for workout.

The area has been acquired on the 30th of June 2016. The subject of the operation was a greenfield area located in the North-East of Milano, in the Palmanova-Crescenzago area. The project predicts the realization of about 137 housing units with their parking spaces; the housing units will have a dimension between 70 and 80 m² to grant the best liveability by the different possible users. 90% of the housing units realized will be used for renting; the 10% left will be used for Integrated Services for Housing.

Moneta
The area is located in Northern part of Milano, along the street via Pellegrino Rossi, close to the stop of the MM3 of Affori; the area is in contact with the park Villa Litta and just after the railroad is located the Sport Center Quanta Village. The context has been deeply renovated from different urban interventions, partially already realized (PRU of Quarto Oggiaro) and partially to be realized (in the former area of the Gasometri in Bovisa, new location for the Politecnico and the PII of Affiori).

Via Novate
The area of intervention is located inside the urban framework of the Comasina district. To be more specific: on the North and West side of the plot runs the limit between the Municipality of Milano and Novate, while on the South side there is the presence of existing residential neighbourhoods that started growing in the 50s. This is considered an emblematic example of the so-called “self-sufficient district“ and it is one of the main intervention realized by the Istituto Autonomo Case Popolari (Autonomous Institute for Social Housing).
The area of Via Novate is now a green area where it is possible to build housing, as described in the PGT. InvestiRE began an urban procedure with the Municipality of Milan for the realization of a proposal of Implementation Plan, as stated in the article 11 of the rules plan, with the final goal of realizing an intervention of Social Housing on the area in Via Novate.
In July 2016, the Beauty Contest ended with the selection of the winning design developed by ITI studio, which consists in the realization of three Towers of 16 floors each, a line of 8 and one of 6 floors, as well as an elevated plinth that will host retail and parking spaces. A total of 353 housing units will be realized with their parking spaces and about 400 m² of services for the Housing.
The starting proposal of the Implementing Plan predicts to do the urbanization works and a public road with double direction with perpendicular parking spaces on both sides and the necessary works to fix the public green spaces for the areas, to be transferred both directly and indirectly.
