Turin: the new life of Cascina Fossata. Social housing, hotels and shops

26 November, La Stampa

After a long period of neglect, the area of Cascina Fossata, near Turin, will have a new life thanks to a social housing project. The works for the new Cascina Fossata were launched three years ago and cost 18 million euro. The project was implemented by the InvestiRE fund Fondo Fasp – Fondo Abitare Sostenibile Piemonte with Cassa Depositi e Prestiti among the main investors.

The new Cascina Fossata will offer 101 apartments divided between emergency accommodations for families, student housing and short-term rentals. There is also a 55-room hotel, including conference and meeting rooms. A Slow Food restaurant will also open soon in the area, along with artisanal shops, social and cultural activities and a park.
