San Siro (district)
San Siro ( lmo, San Sir) is a vast district ("quartiere") of Milan, Italy, part of the Zone 7 administrative division of the city. About 5 km north-west of the city centre, it borders the districts of Lampugnano, QT8, FieraMilano, and Trenno. History Until the 19th century, San Siro was a small settlement, on the banks of the Olona river; its centre was in the surroundings of what is now Piazzale Lotto. The area has been radically transformed in the 20th century. San Siro is a very diverse district, with wide green areas and cemented neighbourhoods, low-income and high-income housing, villas and apartment blocks. Most of the buildings in the area date back to the mid 20th century. The district is also characterized by prominent sports structures, most notably the Giuseppe Meazza football stadium, home of A.C. Milan and Inter Milan. It also houses the most important Milanese hippodrome, as well as other horse racing-related structures. The Palasport di San Siro arena, mai ...

Quinto Romano
Quinto Romano ( lmo, label=Milanese, Quint) is a district (''quartiere'') of Milan, Italy, part of the Zone 7 administrative division of the city. Before being annexed to Milan, it was an autonomous ''comune'' (until 1869) and a ''frazione'' of Trenno (from 1869 to 1923). Quinto Romano was a rural district until the 1960s; the land was then partitioned into 8-9 ''cascine'' (farms). In the following decades, as most of the Milanese rural outskirts, Quinto experienced a quick urbanization process as a consequence of the economic boom of northern Italy and immigration from the south, which caused a quick expansion of Milan and other industrial cities. As is the case with other outskirts that have experienced this rapid development in those decades, Quinto gained the reputation of a socially and economically degraded district. Quinto houses "Aquatica", the most important waterpark A water park (or waterpark, water world) is an amusement park that features water play areas such as ...

Quarto Cagnino (; lmo, label=Milanese, Quart ) is a district (''quartiere'') of Milan, Italy, part of the Zone 7 administrative division of the city. It borders the districts of Trenno (north), San Siro (east), Baggio (south), and Quinto Romano (west). Before being annexed to Milan, in 1869, it was an autonomous ''comune'' and, briefly, a part of Trenno (from 1861 to 1869). Quarto Cagnino is a formerly rural, now urban district, with the last period of quick urban development having occurred in the late 1960s in so called "GESCAL" projects. The "GESCAL" acronym stands for "Gestione Case per i Lavoratori", i.e., "Housing for Workers"; these projects were meant to realize vast low-income apartment blocks in rationally organized, "satellite" city neighbourhoods.Le facciate di Quarto Cagnino' (in Italian) Example of GESCAL apartment flats are found along Via Carlo Marx, close to the San Carlo hospital. While low-income, huge apartment buildings dominate the landscape of Quarto, the ...

Quartiere Degli Olmi
A (; plural: ) is a territorial subdivision of certain Italian towns. The word derives from (‘fourth’) and was thus properly used only for towns divided into four neighborhoods by the two main roads. It has been later used as a synonymous of neighbourhood, and an Italian town can be now subdivided into a larger number of ''quartieri''. The Swiss town of Lugano (in the Italian-speaking canton of Ticino) is also subdivided into quarters.Lugano

Porta Magenta
Porta Magenta, formerly known as Porta Vercellina, was one of the city gates of Milan, Italy. The gate was established in the 9th century, with the Roman walls of the city; it was moved with the medieval and Spanish walls, and was finally demolished in the 19th century. The phrase "Porta Magenta" is now used to refer to the district ("quartiere") where the gate used to be; the district is part of the Zone 7 administrative division of Milan, west of the city centre. Both names "Porta Magenta" and "Porta Vercellina" refer to cities located west of Milan (respectively Magenta and Vercelli). The former name was after Vercelli as the gate controlled the road connecting Milan to this city; the latter name was chosen to celebrate the Battle of Magenta, a decisive victory in the Second Italian War of Independence. The gate A Porta Vercellina was part of the Roman walls of Milan; it was located in what is now Via San Giovanni sul Muro, at the corner of Via Meravigli. The gate was probab ...

Muggiano (district Of Milan)
Muggiano ( lmo, Muggian ) is a district (''quartiere'') of Milan, Italy, part of the Zone 7 administrative division of the city. It is located in western periphery, bordering on the ''comune''s of Cesano Boscone, Cusago, Settimo Milanese, and Trezzano sul Naviglio. Before being annexed to Baggio (in 1869), which in turn was annexed to Milan, Muggiano used to an autonomous comune. The name ''Muggiano'' is of Roman origin; the place used to be called ''Modianus'', after the governor of its territory, named ''Modius''. Until the 1990s, Muggiano was mostly a scarcely populated, rural district, with a landscape dominated by ''cascine'' (farmhouses) and cultivated land. After that, a residential area has been created and the population has rapidly grown. Muggiano is about 10 km from the centre of Milan. As a consequence, it mostly depends on the nearby urban centres of Cesano Boscone and Baggio. Landmarks The main landmarks of Muggiano are two well preserved, medieval cascine (Casci ...
