"Bagnoli futura" or "Bagnoli dimenticata"? Naples is mostly famous for its amazing foods, its sunny and cozy weather, and of course, its stunning sea. Unfortunately, this amazing city has not yet had the privilege to show its full potential. One of the most underrated neighborhoods is Bagnoli but not everybody is aware of its enormous potential. From above Bagnoli's pier, you can see the abandoned, unexploited green area where Italsider's establishments once operated. When they closed in 1992 not only did many people have to face unemployment (it employed indeed 7698 workers), but it also left 160 hectares of land and 33 hectares of beach unused. Due to the large amount of money required to restore the area from the toxic materials used throughout the production, the precious area was left to itslef waiting to, some day, be reborn. Thanks to "Bagnoli Futuna" a project to transform Bagnoli was started in 2002, but as new problems came up it failed in 2014. Since then, nothing has been done to change this dramatic situation. If I could, I would build an open air athletic space and a museum to remember the story of the industry who gave jobs to most of Bagnoli's inhabitants. PS I know it's a bit boring but it's a writing assignment I had to do, thanks for your corrections! :)
