Project: La Spezia Marina, a pelagic odyssey. Located at the head of La Spezia Gulf in the Italian Riviera, the project consists of an island with interrelated commercial, residential, recreational and industrial complexes and is part of a broader program initiated by the Italian government to upgrade the maritime industry along the stretch of the Italian coast. This will involve the renovation of the existing marinas and the implementation of new ones to meet the increasing demand of the maritime recreational activities.
