Giardino Marcello Candia
Giardino Marcello Candia is a public garden in Milan’s Calvairate neighbourhood, shaped by redevelopment of a former industrial site.
The public garden was completed in 2010 after redevelopment.
That former site once housed the historic Tecnomasio Italiano Brown Boveri, known as TIBB, which designed and built trains, trams, and railway equipment.
The nearby Lodi TIBB metro station preserves that industrial connection.
Trees are still maturing across the garden, while its pathways create a peaceful setting within Milan’s busy urban surroundings.
The garden’s pathways offer a peaceful retreat from urban bustle.
Families find two playground areas here, providing spaces for children’s outdoor play and community use.
Dogs have a dedicated area within the garden.
Two drago verde fountains provide a distinctive feature within the garden.
The surrounding redevelopment also includes residential and commercial buildings.
Together, the trees, playgrounds, dog area, fountains, and paths form a public garden within Milan’s changed residential neighbourhood.
Calvairate places this green space among Milan’s urban fabric.
