Overview
- Police cleared the site on August 21, returning the ex‑cartiera in via Watteau to the Cabassi family’s L’Orologio, and the owners have not filed any redevelopment proposal.
- Since 2023 the Soprintendenza has protected the Dauntaun graffiti under the Cultural Heritage Code, blocking alterations or removal without authorization.
- Municipal guidelines for a tender to assign a capannone in via San Dionigi are in place, with participation contingent on asbestos removal estimated at about €200,000 and other upgrades.
- Leoncavallo’s foundation says it cannot meet the tender’s financial requirements and has turned to fundraising.
- Lawyer Mirko Mazzali is asking private entrepreneurs to buy the via Watteau building for a potential return, as members clear belongings under owner supervision until September 21 and the Culture Ministry weighs protection for the centre’s archive.
