TEAM POINT OF VIEW — We think the city as the hearth of a
civilization. We think Laterza and its people need a new space to identify with. We recognize Laterza potentialities in its tradition and culture. We believe in the rebirth of local production. We conceive Laterza as a point of touristic and natural attraction. We see underused resources that have to be requalified. We plan a new unique, dynamic and accessible square. We want the city to reappropriate the natural system around itself. We plan a new connection between the gravina and the old town. We draw a sustainable and eco-friendly system of streets without traffic. We believe that the city has to be reconnected to the regional network of cities based on natural and landscape tourism. We want a clear, safe and respectful city. We believe that the minimal intervention is the best solution.
