Nuovo Corviale
A public housing complex in the southwestern suburbs of Rome, designed by a group of architects led by Mario Fiorentino. Construction began in 1975, and residents started moving in from 1982. A single building about 1 km long holds around 1,200 homes, earning it the nickname "Serpentone" (the big serpent). The fourth floor, intended for shops and public facilities, was never used as planned and was long occupied as housing, but in recent years it has been converted into proper apartments. Many people still live here, so please do not go inside.
