Università degli Studi di Roma Tor Vergata

Rome

IN SHORT

Calatrava's master plan for the campus — conceived with conscious reference to the Circus Maximus — is designed as a long promenade, bordered along its entire length by a double row of cypresses. The new Sports City at one end and the Rectorate of Tor Vergata University at the other end. A large urban park linking the University and the Sports City will become a forum for meetings, social and cultural events. Other buildings to be developed later will ultimately line the avenue and provides accommodations for students and houses new university faculties. The Sports City, to be developed in an area close to the Torrenova with access to the Rome- Naples highway, comprised of two symmetrically arranged identical fan-shaped pavilions and a series of external infrastructure works to complete and complement the development.
