On its land, Midi has designed a new<br />
building complex in Via Stalingrado (be-<br />
tween Via Aldo Moro and Piazza della<br />
Costituzione).<br />
Midi project details:<br />
12,800 square meters of office<br />
space<br />
a conference room of about 800<br />
square meters, seating 400<br />
two restaurants of 800 and 500<br />
square meters<br />
a bar of 400 square meters<br />
a shopping area of 700 square me-<br />
ters<br />
car-parking facilities of 23,500<br />
square meters, for about 720 vehi-<br />
cles<br />
a multi-story car-park on Via Stal-<br />
ingrado, opposite <strong>Unipol</strong> headquar-<br />
ters, for about 400 vehicles.<br />
This project is of enormous importance<br />
given the strategic location in the heart<br />
of the Fair District, the new gateway to<br />
the city centre.<br />
The most striking part of the project is a<br />
bridge-type building on Via Stalingrado,<br />
enhancing the idea of the gateway, up-<br />
grading the northern access.<br />

SECTION IV – GROUP COMPANIES<br />
Since the nineties, Unifimm has owned<br />
land to the east of Bologna, close to the<br />
ring road, near the San Vitale turn-off<br />
in Via Terrapieno and Via Larga, next<br />
to the Pianeta Shopping Mall. Originally<br />
the land was intended for the traditional<br />
business activities of the company but<br />
subsequently the project was reconsid-<br />
ered in light of the property develop-<br />
ment opportunities and the decision of<br />
the City Authority to upgrade the area.<br />
The study of the environmental impact,<br />
carried out with City Authority design-<br />
ers and technicians, and considerations<br />
concerning the existing facilities in the<br />
area, led to the design of a complex in-<br />
cluding:<br />
7,400 square meters for a multiplex<br />
cinema (14 screens)<br />
4,700 square meters for restaurants<br />
and services<br />
7,200 square meters for a hotel<br />
11,900 square meters of office<br />
space<br />
30,000 square meters for car parks.<br />
This will be an important attraction for<br />
the city, with a different but comple-<br />
mentary function to the nearby Shop-<br />
ping Mall. The bureaucratic procedure<br />
began in 2000 and the project is due for<br />
forthcoming planning permission (with-<br />
in the year). Construction work will be-<br />
gin in the first half of 2004.<br />
