The city of Pisa is implementing various urban regeneration initiatives focused on the repurposing of municipal and historical assets.

One project involved the conservative restoration of the 12th-century San Marco in Calcesana church. Funded by over one million euros through PNRR resources, the project transformed the building into a multipurpose space for cultural and social activities, including structural consolidation, the installation of modern technological systems, and the creation of accessible gardens.

In a separate commercial regeneration effort titled ‘Pisa is much more – Botteghe, idee e futuro’, the municipality launched a ‘Call for ideas’ to facilitate the temporary reuse of unused properties. This initiative, supported by a 70,000 euro investment including funds from the Tuscany Region, allows participants to host entrepreneurial, artisanal, or cultural projects in specific locations for approximately three months without rental fees.
