The former Cementir area on Via Coroglio has been acquired free of charge: this is the news announced by the extraordinary government commissioner for Bagnoli, led by mayor Gaetano Manfredi, within the guidelines established by the government control room chaired in recent months by Minister Fitto.
The transaction between Invitalia and Basi 15 srl, part of the Cementir Group, has been defined. The agreement, it is underlined in a note, "represents a fundamental step in the regeneration process of the Bagnoli area because even the last area affected by the regeneration has been brought back into the public perimeter".
In fact, starting from November 2023, the commissioner Manfredi had promoted the activation of a technical table to overcome the long-standing existing dispute, and to favor a comprehensive negotiated solution to the disputes. The signed agreement allows Invitalia to take over the ownership of the former Cementir areas, which will be part of the large urban park of Bagnoli.
Among the elements of the transaction, the free transfer of the areas and buildings by Basi 15 to Invitalia, together with the mutual waivers of pending lawsuits. Invitalia will now proceed with the technical activities necessary for the environmental remediation and regeneration of the areas.
The former Cementir area, which covers approximately 70.000 square meters between via Coroglio and via Pasquale Leonardi Cattolica, "plays a strategic role within the Environmental Remediation and Urban Regeneration Program, redefined with the variant of the urban planning section approved by the Extraordinary Commissioner in May 2023", the police station recalls.
The plan calls for part of the site to house infrastructures connected to the new layout of the Arena Sant'Antonio, a groundwater treatment plant and two car parks serving the park and the waterfront. Most of the area, however, will be integrated into the large urban park that will extend over 100 hectares across the entire plain.
Now Invitalia will be able to start the technical activities necessary for the preparation and rapid approval – thanks to the accelerated procedures established by the extraordinary commissioner – of the demolition project of the large abandoned warehouses.

the ex Cementir area is a good opportunity for Bagnoli but I hope that the promises are kept. The regeneration project is important but it takes certain times to see results. I fear that as usual it remains only words without facts.
