The view from this centre’s stunning workspaces will leave you in no doubt as to why its name roughly translates as ‘canal lock’. In fact, the entire Navigli neighbourhood is named after the network of centuries-old canals that wind between historic structures and modern office blocks alike. Piazza Vetra 17 blends old and new Milan; a glistening, glass-fronted professional hub bordering the grounds of one of the city’s oldest (and most beautiful) chapels. Inside the centre, floor-to-ceiling windows offer spectacular views and ensure natural light fills every designer office and meeting room, while high-speed Wi-Fi and professional staff ensure your productivity is at its peak.
The Milanese wrote the book on al fresco drinking and dining, so it’s no surprise that the streets surrounding this centre are lined with an array of bohemian shops, bars and eateries. This is a creative district, with hidden gems and inspiration at every turn – including the charming Piazza Vetra park on your doorstep. And when you’ve had your fill of networking, exploring and embracing local culture, you’ll find getting home a breeze thanks to an array of local transport links.

Piazza Vetra 17 sits in the 20123 postcode in the historic centre of Milan, on the Navigli side of the city and bordering the Piazza Vetra park. The Vetra stop is roughly 166 metres on foot, while Sant'Ambrogio on the M2 line is about a kilometre away and bus and tram stops at Piazzale Cantore and Piazza Sant'Ambrogio sit between 1.1 and 1.2 kilometres out. Milano Porta Genova railway station links regional and national routes, and parking starts around 370 metres from the door. The surroundings are the reason people stay late: the Basilica di San Lorenzo Maggiore and the Colonne di San Lorenzo are neighbours, the Navigli canals and their bars and eateries are a short walk, Via Torino brings the shops, and the Museo Nazionale della Scienza e della Tecnologia Leonardo da Vinci is a short distance away.
