CityLife is a mixed-use district developed since 2009 in the place of a former fairground (the Fiera Milano moved outside the city centre). Three skyscrapers, all designed by famous architects, are the most conspicuous features of the project, but there are also residential buildings, a shopping centre, and plenty of green space. Skyscrapers from left to right: Generali Tower ("Il Storto", Zaha Hadid), PwC Tower ("Il Curvo", Daniel Libeskind), and Allianz Tower ("Il Dritto", Arata Isozaki).
