11 July 1911: Authorized purchase of the area for the Navy Ministry

11/07/15

Parliament authorizes the expenditure of 1.400.000 lire for the purchase of the area necessary for the construction of the new headquarters of the Ministry of the Navy and the barracks of the detachment of the CRE.

The building area chosen is the one located in Rome at Lungotevere Flaminio in the locality called “Villa Cavalieri” at a unit price not exceeding 40 lire / m2 and for a total cost not exceeding 1.400.000 lire.

The area located on the Lungotevere Flaminio will result in time responding only to the need for the construction of the new headquarters of the ministry, so the area for the construction of the barracks of the CRE detachment will be sought in another urban area, in the Prati area.
