Renderings of New Archaeological Walk unveiled at Trajan's Markets   The judges singled out the "convincing solution" of a proposed terrace for the slopes overlooking the Colosseum, below Via Nicola Salvi, which "resolves the multiple functional and landscape needs of the particular existing context with a single architectural gesture."

The winning entry will now be subject to legal and feasibility checks, according to the city of Rome website, which states that all going to plan the works could start by September. Photos Labics
