A close up of the entrance gate to the building in the post below, part of the old Lambretta factory in the Lambrate area of Milano. Being on Via Rubattino the building is becoming more and more vandalised each year that I visit. This building and the Centro Studi just up the road are still perfectly usable and one would make a great Museum as a tribute to the mighty Innocenti factory that stood on the site.
This is not a surprise. With this economic crisis, expect that more businesses will be closed because of bankruptcy.

What's the location of this once great factory? I'm going there next month but still have to find the directions. If you know how to get there please email me on mike@whitedog.co.uk thanks
ReplyDeleteSorry Mike, I missed this email as the blog has stopped auto notifying my gmail account! Hope you found it!
ReplyDeleteCan you post the address details and the location of the cafe you mention. A few Lambrettas are heading over to Milan next year from London..
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for a very interesting blog.
Hi Steve, sorry for the late reply, my Gmail notifications have stopped working again! https://www.facebook.com/www.illambrettino.it you will find the address and details. The Piazza Vigili del Fuoco (Firefighters Square) is off Via Riccardo Pitteri in Lambrate Milan. Hope I am not too late, I assume it is too cold to go at the moment!
