Abstract

An urban regeneration project brings the creation of tangible and intangible effects that arise from the design choices adopted, as well as from the sustainability goals identified. The tangible effects of the intervention are traditionally intercepted by economic evaluation models and allow design choices to maximize the developer’s economic return. In addition, intangible effects are generated, such as, the impact on the quality of life, environmental impacts, and the social and cultural vibrancy of the area. Defining, and even more quantifying, the intangible effect of a project is complex, requiring effort in analyzing the intentionality and additionality that lead to the creation of added value for the area in which the project is located and for the community that benefits from it.
The objective of the study is to identify and measure the impacts and the social additional value generated by the urban regeneration of the Porta Nuova district while considering the effects it has triggered on neighboring districts in the city of Milan and at larger scale. A multimethodological approach, based on Stakeholders’ Analysis, Multiple Criteria Spatial Decision Support Systems (MC-SDSS) and Community Impact Evaluation (CIE) has been developed to identify the purpose and the dimensions impacted by the urban project on the different stakeholders categories. The final result highlights the spatial distribution and the intensity of impacts from a purpose perspective.
