In the aftermath of World War II, the housing condition in Milan is dramatic. Estimates of the housing stock lost due to wartime destruction put it at between 15 and 25 percent of the pre-existing stock. The first period of reconstruction, between 1945 and 1953, is characterized by the slow and especially scant response to the housing problem for the poorest component of the population. This essay offers a detailed overview of this first period, and then concludes with a reference to a different principle on which reconstruction could have been set, concreted by the experience of QT8 and Monte Stella as a ‘dream’ pursued by Piero Bottoni - for ‘a house for all.’
Keywords: postwar reconstruction; Milan; housing
