Leverone Field House

About the project

The Leverone Field House is currently undergoing a replacement of the building's roof and a renewal of its mechanical, electrical, and fire protection systems. Originally built in 1965 by Italian architect Pier Luigi Nervian–an early adopter of reinforced concrete construction in public spaces–the building was previously renovated in 2000. For more insight into the project, take a look at the Interactive 3D map of Leverone Field House.
