The large production and quality of the results achieved by Italiana Costruzioni SpA, founded thirty years ago by Dr. Claudio Navarra, shows a passion for construction that originates far back in time. The building activity of the family was initiated in 1880 by Luciano Navarra. Amongst his accomplished works of particular interest were a section of the Rome – Naples railway line, a bridge over the Vulture river, and sections of Via Aurelia, Via Boccea and Via Laurentina. His son Attilio continued and strengthened his endeavours, carrying out public contracts, such as the Palace of Justice in Latina, the Military Barracks of Bolzano, aqueducts and drains in various zones of Italy. The same Attilio started the real estate firm in the capital with valuable building complexes in Via Tagliamento, Via di Villa Emiliani, Via Porro, Via Pezzano and Via Caroncini. This activity was further developed by his son Claudio, who in 1960 built, in association with his brothers Maurizio and Paolo, works of great merit and sensitive planning, that contribute to the architectural personality of modern Rome. With the creation of Italiana Construzioni SpA in 1975, together with an unswerving commitment in the real estate field, Claudio Navarra imparts a new drive in the public works sector.
