Despite the fact that he shaped Venice and its contemporary form,
Eugenio Miozzi remains a little-known figure. Yet both locals and
visitors experience his legacy every day, in particular when they
cross his bridges: from the Ponte della Liberta, the Ponte
dell'Accademia, the various bridges over the Rio Nuovo, to the
exemplary Ponte degli Scalzi. Miozzi, chief engineer of the Commune
of Venice from 1931 to 1954, carried out a large number of works
and projects, including a vast modernist parking garage and the
Casino on the Lido. The prolific engineer-architect played a role
in the development of the Fenice, made plans for the restoration of
the city and the extension of the Tronchetto, and designed a
trans-lagoon road and a motorway from Venice to Monaco. These
projects and the others presented in this illustrated volume
represent Miozzi's efforts to combine the centuries-old traditions
of Venice with a spirit of innovation as a guarantee for the city's
survival.
