Milano Santa Giulia is a green and residential district still in construction in the south-east periphery of Milan, between the districts of Rogoredo and Taliedo. 

The area where Milano Santa Giulia was built is a 296 acres wide former industrial zone, where Montedison andAcciaierie Redaelli facilities used to be. For this reason, the district is also nicknamed Montecity, after Montedison.

The leading architect of the Milano Santa Giulia project is Norman Foster (UK), and the developer is Risanamento.

 

According to the initial plan, the district will have two main areas,

respectively where Montedison and Redaelli facilities used to be;

they will be divided by a large city park, traversed by the Paullese,

a major thoroughfare connecting Milan to Paullo.

The ex-Montedison area (bordering on Taliedo) is intended to

become been a luxury residential area, with a prestigious shopping

mall (nicknamed "Montecity Avenue"), congress facilities, and a church

designed by Peter Zumthor.

The district will accommodate up to 60,000 residents and

comprise retail stores as well as leisure areas. Hotels, offices, a 

conference center, a school, and a church are planned, surrounding

a large central green area. Public art in the area has been

commissioned to sculptor Anish Kapoor
