The Vallette is a neighborhood that could easily be missed. It’s a bit off the beaten path, in Turin’s northwestern suburbs. It’s a neighborhood built in the 1960s for migrant workers, far from the city center and the flow of foot traffic. This makes it feel like a forgotten place, devoid of its vitality. But it’s not entirely forgotten. The Vallette is a story of community, perseverance, and transformation. It’s a place where people have built a life, and it’s a place that is trying to find its way back to the heart of Turin. The neighborhood is built around a main pedestrian thoroughfare that crosses three distinct areas. There is a green area with a lawn, gardens, and a botanical garden. There is a cultural exchange area with a square and a shopping center. And there’s an activity area for people of all ages with playgrounds, a fitness area, and a multi-purpose activity center. The square is suitable for local fairs, exhibitions, and concerts. The project integrated and rebuilt existing green spaces, giving a new purpose and function to open spaces. The Vallette is full of interesting things to see, learn about, and appreciate. It’s worth a visit. It’s a glimpse into the history of post-war Turin, and a reminder that even forgotten places can find a new life.
