When I was little boy, Milan dwellers said to have the tram under home. In anywhere they should go they knew by heart the number of each tram and its destination. There was a number for each destination from somewhere point of the town one could leave. There was not destination without number. And one left from under home.
Today please see corso Buenos Aires or via Dante or corso Vercelli and the road for Giambellino, corso Lodi and all the roads for suburbs.. Goddard made a film on terrible suburbs of Paris.
Billows of cars thickened like the multitude of manifestations of mass with high crests of smoke.
Now Milan dwellers say that not even Uraja, that nullified Milan for five centuries , would be successful to reduce this town like now.
