Milan, more and more assumesed importance from the second half of 1700 as regional pole, to such point that has noticed the impossibility for every other city to develop itself in its vicinities, at least until the end of the past century. 

 

It is with the Unit and the industrialization that Milan begins to get crowded quickly and in continuous way. The city expansion is guided by the circle morphology of the city.

The evolution of Milan under the aspect of the expansions not which ordered, expansions that will be inglobate in only the woven one in successive phases.
