In the center of Milan and on the edge of the Brera district, Corso Garibaldi is well served by public transport, both the metro Line 2 (green - Moscova stop -) and Line 5 (lilac - Porta Garibaldi Station stop where there are also Passante Ferroviario and FS) as well as numerous surface lines (buses and trams in the immediate vicinity). It is a pedestrian and commercial street in Milan, approximately 1.1 km long. It branches off from Piazza XXV Aprile (Corso Como) to the north and reaches Via Pontaccio (Brera). It falls entirely within Milan’s Municipio 1 and is part of the limited traffic zone known as Area C, of which it is one of the access points (at the northern intersection with Via Francesco Crispi). History It was originally called Corso di Porta Comasina (Porta Comasina was the name of the gate before 1860) or ”Comacina.” Literally meaning ”which leads to Como,” the street was in fact the main route between Milan and Como. In the past it was a humble extramural suburb, characterised by a popular appearance, animated mostly by the activities of artisans and merchants from Como. The medieval Porta Comasina was located at the southern end of the street, on the corner of Via Tivoli and Via Pontaccio. The subsequent Spanish gate, erected in what is now Piazza XXV Aprile (the northern end of the street), was demolished in the early 19th century, during the Napoleonic era, to accommodate the project for a new toll and ornamental function for the gates begun under Francesco Melzi d’Eril. In 1826, the Austrian government commissioned the neoclassical architect Giacomo Moraglia to build the new Porta Comasina, still located in what is now Piazza XXV Aprile: a majestic late-neoclassical arch, dedicated first to Francis I of Austria and later to Giuseppe Garibaldi. In 1891, excavations uncovered the remains of the ’rustic’ bridge (from which the current Via Pontaccio takes its name), which had been demolished in the 16th century. The street was one of the main targets of the Austrians during the uprisings of March 1848. During the years of Italian Unification, specifically in 1860, it was decided to dedicate both the gate (which became Porta Garibaldi) and the street to the living Giuseppe Garibaldi. The choice of dedication to Garibaldi was motivated both by the popular patriotism typical of the area and because the street led towards Como, where Garibaldi had won important battles (it is said that he himself entered Milan from there). The 1948/49 reconstruction plan and the 1953 master plan called for the complete demolition of the buildings along the street, to be replaced with a series of residential and commercial buildings, with porticoes and set back from the buildings to be replaced. The street, widened to a width of 25 meters, would have served as the main link between the historic center and the new business district. In 1972, the extension of Metro Line 2 was supposed to have resulted in the expropriation and destruction of the surviving buildings (including the Fossati Theater), but the project was hampered by numerous protests from residents, which led to a modification of the project to preserve the old buildings and the inclusion of some of them in a plan for affordable...
