This research aims to identify and describe a district of the city of Milan, an urban ecosystem, former industrial, starting from the places that have been abandoned and that until a few decades ago were places of work, culture, sociality and history, referring to thoughts and to the visions of Gilles Clement, to the "Third Estate", to an undecided landscape, to suspended projects, on the margins abandoned by man and which often collect identities and diversities no longer recognized as riches. A territory suspended between memory and redemption, poised between past and future.
