I didn't know about this, quite an extraordinary story:

For ease of reference, here's the old Poggioreale:
https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/91020+Poggioreale+Province+of+Trapani,+Italy/@37.7907799,13.0252466,384m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x131a252a172113bb:0xfdbd30abfc4bf785!8m2!3d37.7631772!4d13.0349738
Just another one of the many examples that imposing large designs on cities is a bad idea.
