Real Estate have restarted the works that had earlier been suspended following a sentence of the Lombardy Regional Administrative Court (TAR). The sentence had annulled building licence number 316, granted by the Milan City Council on 8/8/2001. With a ruling issued yesterday the Council of State suspended the sentence following the appeal lodged by the company. And so, pending the detailed declaration of the Council of State, works may be resumed for the implementation of the Bicocca Multisala project, which will see the creation of an entertainment centre featuring an 18-screen multiplex cinema (with seating for almost 6000 people) to be managed by Warner Village, as well as a fitness centre, bars, restaurants and small themed shops. The project will also feature multi-storey parking facilities for roughly 1,400 cars.In the words of Vice President and Managing Director Carlo Alessandro Puri Negri: "We note with satisfaction that with this ruling the Council of State have accepted our petition and have effectively quashed the disputed sentence, and have made clear that at the definitive stage of adjudication the sound reasoning behind our appeal will be recognised". He went on to state that "With the multiplex cinema, fitness centre and other facilities, Bicocca will finally be able to complete the range of functions that we believe are indispensable for a new centre of urban development" (>continue)
