Following the in-depth analysis of the historical evolution of the garden, the reliefs of the current state with its the problems and criticalities, the final project proposes rehabilitation interventions which, on the one hand, attempt to restore the original idea envisaged by the designer Raffaele de Vico, on the other hand, introduces new functions and attractions, originally not foreseen, but in fact necessary, inside the garden.
The project wants to extend the secondary avenue improving the connection with Santa Maria del Buon Soccorso and open two new entrances aligned with it.
The existing Bar will be moved into the small round squares inside the garden to regain the orginal entrace situation and implement a more efficient circulation.
The existing dod area will be reduced and the lowered are will be redeveloped shaping the slope and eliminating secondary existing axes today present. The play area will be moved near the Aurelian Walls; and the ground lighting under the Aurelian Walls will be restored. Some of the Holm Oask on the main avenue will be removed to avoid damages due to overlapping with the Plane trees. The concrete Pavement will be replaced with gravel which will increase the permeable surface on the gardens and the paving made with stoned along the Aurelian Walls will also be restored.

01. History of the Gardens
1927 Project by Raffaele de Vico
2000 New Project after the demolitions of the ATAC sheds along the Aurelian Wall
02. Present Situation
Here are the Botanical Relief and the Canopy Relief and the study about the criticalities regarding both the constructed elements ( missing or destroyed benches, paving issues, added elements over time etc.) and the natural elements (missing trees or vetetation, added vegetation not present in the original project of 2000, damed or at risk trees, etc.).
