Eugenio Miozzi, the architect who shaped Venice and its contemporary form, remains a lesser-known figure. However, his legacy is experienced daily by both locals and visitors, particularly when traversing his iconic bridges. These include the Ponte della Libertà, Ponte dell'Accademia, various bridges over the Rio Nuovo, and the exemplary Ponte degli Scalzi. Serving as the chief engineer of the Commune of Venice from 1931 to 1954, Miozzi undertook a vast array of works and projects. These included the construction of a modernist parking garage and the Casino on the Lido. The prolific engineer-architect played a significant role in the development of the Fenice, formulated plans for the restoration of the city and the expansion of the Tronchetto, and designed a trans-lagoon road and a motorway connecting Venice to Monaco. These projects, along with the others showcased in this illustrated volume, exemplify Miozzi's unwavering commitment to blending the centuries-old traditions of Venice with a spirit of innovation to ensure the city's survival.
