Most significantly, the regenerated<br />

waterfront at Civitanova Marche will have<br />

open public spaces.<br />

all of this and there will be various<br />

conferences and themed meetings<br />

that will define how much will be<br />

granted with respect to the request.<br />

Q: There are plans for fishing activities,<br />

maritime services and a fish market<br />

on the quay of the breakwater. Do<br />

you think that yachts, fishermen and<br />

fish markets can coexist?<br />

A: The project combines these<br />

elements very well. The fishermen<br />

are already located in a well-defined<br />

area that doesn’t interfere with the<br />

tourism development of the port and, at<br />

the same time, represents a resource.<br />

A port without fishing, fish and<br />

shipwrights – and without the existing<br />

beautiful seaside village – is no longer<br />

a port. The fishermen remain because<br />

they do not bother the large yachts and<br />

the large yachts, in turn, do not bother<br />

them. This is why we deliberately left<br />

them out of our concession application.<br />

Every morning when I pass the port<br />

and see the fishing boats moored up<br />

is a beautiful morning.<br />

Q: What are the project timings and what<br />

do you need to do to get started?<br />

A: This is an administrative procedure<br />

that has clear timelines but, of<br />

course, all depends on the public<br />

administrator. The procedure can be<br />

completed within a year and a half<br />

or maximum of two years. It’s not up<br />

to us, but it could be even faster and<br />

take us less than 15 months.<br />

Q: Can we say that Civitanova Marche is<br />

preparing for a turning point?<br />

A: Yes. Our proposal aims to bring<br />

change to the city in coming decades.<br />

Q: Am I right to think it’s a bit like<br />

Marseille?<br />

A: Yes. It is even positioned in one of<br />

those near-unique situations in which<br />

a seaside village sits inside a port.<br />

You can imagine what a spectacle it<br />

will be when it is completed.<br />
