Consortium to masterplan the Olympic Village for Milan Cortina 2026 chosen Wednesday, 14 April 2021
An international team to masterplan the Olympic Village for Milan Cortina 2026 has been announced, with a consortium including London-based PLP Architecture and New York City’s Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Carlo Ratti Associati of Turin and Gross Max of Edinburgh.
The competition sought proposals to transform Milan’s Porta Romana railway yard - an enormous 216,779 square metre disused train depot - into a 1,000-unit Athletes’ Village along with offices, social housing, railway infrastructure and a large 100,000 square metre park connected to the wider city.
Following the Games, the accommodation will be converted into student housing.
Italian real estate giant Coima has chosen a winner for the tender for the preliminary masterplan of the regeneration of the Porta Romana Railway Yard in Milan, the future site of the Olympic Village for the 2026 Winter Olympics.
