Viale Pasubio

Viale Pasubio is an avenue in Milan, Italy. It is part of the circonvallazione interna ring road, a major traffic route that runs along the former Spanish walls of Milan. The street is 350 m long and connects two former city gates, namely Porta Garibaldi and Porta Volta . The street was formerly known as "Viale di Porta Garibaldi" , and was renamed after World War I in remembrance of the fightings on the Pasubio massif that occurred during the war.

The buildings in Viale Pasubio were severely damaged by Allied bombings in World War II; those on the southern side of the street were never fully restored or replaced. The ruins have been adapted to diverse purposes: a large plant nursery has been established, and a number of slum-like, abusive settlements have formed over time.
