The project Indipendenza 16 saw the complete renovation of historic buildings located in Como, in Via Indipendenza at the corner with Via Vittorio Emanuele, made up of three factory buildings built in different eras overlooking a unique inner courtyard where garages were obtained. The work consisted in the complete reconstruction (sometimes in the consolidation) of the existing floors covering the shops of the ground floor; the reconstruction of walls, installations, frames with prefabricated insulating blocks; the insulation and realization of thermal and acoustic insulation; the insertion of two new elevator spaces; the conservative restoration of existing façades with reconstruction of deteriorated and/or damaged parts; the complete renovation of the roofing in iron and wood and all the interior finishes. The commercial businesses were able to continue their activities regularly during the work period.
