Corso Vittorio Emanuele II Torino

The first phase of construction takes place on the blocks between the Avenue and the current Via Mazzini in the 1920s. The 7 large lots sold by the city to private individuals for the construction of villas and buildings with gardens, during the century undergo many transformations. The blocks now have a wide variety of types: neoclassical cottages, rental houses, raised cottages next to prestigious housing estates and manor houses. Outside, on Viale del Re, a certain continuity is maintained, especially in the austere tone that is given to even the most modest buildings, in the mid-nineteenth century, through neoclassical ornaments.
