However, the real architectural distortion in that area was due to the opening of the Via dei Fori<br />
Imperiali - in the beginning called Via dell’Impero - according to the fascist project of modernizing<br />
monuments and celebrations. It was inaugurated in 1932 by erasing entire historic streets, demolishing<br />
church buildings, gutting hills and pulling down old structures and statues of the Roman<br />
republican and imperial age. So what was built in the early days of the city, and what was designed<br />
and built in recent times, coexist in Campitelli more than in any other location in Rome. It took ten<br />
months’ work to change all of the features of the area: the new large gap emerged between Piazza<br />
Venezia and the Colosseum – beyond any possible ideological consideration – presented itself<br />
from the start, on the aesthetic, functional, urban levels, as the most visible symbol of the eternal<br />
conflict that seems to caress the soul of those who live or pass through the walls of the City. That<br />
intermittent and arcane dilemma, which is ultimately impossible to solve, inextricable, and for this<br />
reason darkly fascinating; that doubtful hesitation between the admiration of the ancient and the<br />
need for modernization – that dilemma lingers and spreads in Rome in a unique way within the<br />
whole world. And that is not a limit, but rather a continuous source of new vitality – like the needle<br />
of an imaginary compass of time, vibrating between the remains of the early days, the recent<br />
echoes of the day before yesterday, and the deafening calls of today.<br />

9 - A SEARCH FOR THE EVALUATION CRITERIA<br />
According to a general definition, “evaluation is the discipline that aims to provide the methodological<br />
tools for the assessment of those assets that can not be assessed in an unambiguous fashion”<br />
(“Estimo. Teoria, procedure di valutazione e casi applicativi” / “Appraisal. Theory, assessment and<br />
case studies”, Grillenzoni Maurizio, Grittani Giovanni – Calderini – 1994).<br />
For the proper preparation of an estimate, it is necessary to establish, in the first place, the principle<br />
of ‘objective assessment’ whose absence will inevitably make the estimate depart from market<br />
realities – which, in fact, is a substantial and determining feature when seeking to ascertain a<br />
value.<br />
In the present case, the purpose of the estimative report is to identify “the most probable maximum<br />
market value” to be allocated to the building, taking into consideration the optimum conditions resulting<br />
from a radical functional redevelopment as described in the previous chapter.<br />
Having said that, we have been focusing - as per our mandate - on establishing the Market<br />
Value applying the processes of direct estimates.
