Rome, Ostiense "Urban Street Art District". Fascinating apartment in via del Porto River, a road that connects the Via Ostiense to the Marconi, Portuense, Gianicolense and Trastevere areas, but also one of the emblems of the city of art par excellence, as a unique example of "open -air art". The Ostiense district is in fact one of the most fascinating areas of the capital, which has experienced an intelligent urban redevelopment process also making use of street art.
The home is currently used as a professional studio but will be transferred with a residential category for change of intended use.
It consists of a large entrance, living room, where the open kitchen, two bedrooms, bathroom and balcony will be restored.

The property is placed on the second floor of a characteristic two -storey building, enriched by the famous mural "the swimmer of Agostino Iacuci" and accessible through a delicious internal courtyard. The murals, which is located right above the historic Ostiense fishmonger, was built for the Street Art Outdoor Festival Festival in 2011 and depicts a man with headphones and goggles. The character represented swims along the entire facade of the building, surrounded by colored fish. Graffito is a "metaphor of peaceful coexistence" and wants to be an invitation to create a new environment, a so -called "urban aquarium", in which to live in peace and perfect harmony.

Fantastic housing and investment opportunity. High profitability.

Ostiense District
In the first industrial district of Ostiense, one of the neighborhoods of the dynamics of capital, in recent years, a project dedicated to street art has also developed: the "Ostiense District". There are about 30 graffiti in the area, including huge graffiti that cover the building at the intersection between via conce and the river port, of the blue artist, the most famous Italian scratch.
Evening clubs in continuous change alongside places that tell the story of Rome. It is this street of the river port, which connects the Ostiense to the Iron Bridge, then to Viale Marconi. A small road that has a lot to say and show. "I ruined this area", so the Turkish director Ferzan Ozpetek, for decades in the area, would have confided to many residents. As if to apologize to the inhabitants, true Romans, who have seen in a few years the transformation of a fascinating archeo-industrial area by place of night life. A heron on the sea dominates the main crossroads: it is the eco -sustainable mural of Jena Cruz (or Federico Massa), a painting that changed the face to the road and the palace that houses it. Light colors embellish and aspire the pollution of the dozens that pass, it seems to be a forest or in the sky.
The painting is in front of the ex-Cierma, now occupied river port: on the other hand, instead it is blue to tell about the vision of the city with colorful walls. Works that are slowly losing intensity, but it is the artist himself who does not want to eternal. The whole street is embellished with street art: on the Cantini hardware - historic company born in a 1914 building to host the materials necessary to build the Ostiense neighborhood, or modern Rome - there is the mural of Axel Void that depicts one Woman from behind, "nobody". Thus is the river port, between history and modernity, now much more a road connection from two populous neighborhoods. It is also an area of effervescent nightlife, but not only.
Panels should be made that they explain to everyone where they are at that moment ». From the terrace of Saccheria Sonnino you can perfectly see the Rome of industrial archeology and the ancient city behind it. From here, Gasome and Colosseum have never been so close.
