A study for the drafting of Guidelines for an urban and environmental regeneration project for the port of Civitanova Marche is the outcome of an inter- institutional agreement between the University of Camerino and the Municipality of Civitanova Marche. The study has made it possible to understand how to reorganize service areas and experiment with a system of new relations between the city and the port. Thanks to various perspectives, the four essays that make up the report offer ideas for a general reflection on the regeneration of port areas in the mid-Adriatic.
The formation of small ports in the Italian Middle Adriatic is associated with the artificialization of the mouths of the rivers on which they insist. In the examined cases, the city assumes the port exclusively as a necessary equipment, as completion, and not as a beginning; in none of them the port constitutes a place of urban representation. The port of Civitanova Marche was taken as an exemplary case study of a recently constituted infrastructure, also as a sphere of application of regenerative strategies capable of renewing the urban image by transforming a city with a port into a city-port.
