Condomínio Edifício Itália, at Avenida Ipiranga 344, was built between 1956 and 1965 to the design of German-Brazilian architect Franz Heep. The 168 meter, 46-story modernist concrete skyscraper was the second tallest building in São Paulo after Mirante do Vale at the time of its completion--a standing it held into 2012. Built to honor the thousands of Italian immigrants to São Paulo, Edifício Itália was designed as a triangular tower with curved corners and covered with brise-soleil. It houses the Circolo Italiano foundation and Terraço Itália restaurant on its top floors, which is also used as an observation deck.

Concorso Italiano 2011 held August 19, 2011 on the Laguna Seca Golf Course in Monterey, Califonria.

 

Veloce Today Sept. Issue article by Brandes Elitch excerpt below:

  

And this brings me to one of my favorite cars that is owned, coincidentally, by someone whose car I featured 2 years ago – Guido Lanza. I am a “sedan guy,” and his car is one of my favorites –a “barn find” Lancia Flaminia Berlina. It turns out that there is already a superb history of the car at another place I have profiled here: Ettins Moto, in Berkeley, owned by Jaan Hjorth. In fact, you can read about it at: www.eddinsmoto.com/id56.htm

Here is some perspective from the owner. The Flaminia replaced the Aurelia as the top of the line Lancia. The sedan was designed, but not built, by Pininfarina, based on the truly spectacular 1955 Florida prototype. About 3000 examples were made. Guido’s car is an early model, with 4 wipers on the back window (yes, 2 inside and 2 outside!) and drum brakes. The article at Eddins Moto shows the history of the car, and each successive owner has continued to restore it. Guido thinks he is the 5th owner. His father grew up in Milano, and when the car was new he dreamed that one day he would be successful and have one himself, so you see, dreams really do come true. The goal is restoring it was to turn it into an “impossible time warp car,” but it turned out that like many Italian cars (surprise) there were rust issues, which required body work and new paint, and then of course, an new interior. The biggest issue was rebuilding the transaxle. You can see pictures of the restoration at: www.flickr.com/photos/27321085@N02/sets/72157616309578610/

This is a car that you would have trouble finding even in Italy. It is one of my dream cars, if I hit the Lotto. Here, the color, and particularly the interior, are just right, and really take your breath away. Guido was certainly the right person for this car.

Leda Gloria (1912-1997) was one of Federico Fellini’s favourite film actresses, having a prolific career in the 1930s and 1940s but is also remembered as the wife of Peppone in the Don Camillo films.

 

Leda Gloria, pseudonym of Leda Nicoletti Data was born in Rome, on 30 August 1912. She started her film career already at a young age, winning a film contest held by an American film company in Italy. She dropped her studies as a harpist and acted in various silent Italian and German films, one of which was next to Lil Dagover, the German early sound film Es gibt eine Frau die dich niemals vergisst (Leo Mittler 1930), also with Ivan Petrovich. Gloria’s first film seems to have been the comedy Ragazze non scherzate (Alfred Lind 1929) with Maurizio D’Ancora. With the coming of sound cinema, she became one of the most active and popular Italian actresses. She first made her mark in two films by Alessandro Blasetti, Terra madre (1931) and Palio (1932), playing lively and spontaneous country girls. In Terra madre Gloria played country girl Emilia opposite Sandro Salvini, the former love interest in the silent diva films. Here he plays a duke who wants to sell his estate and move to the city, but after a fire extinguished with the help of the farmers he decides to stay. In Palio, in which jockey’s representing various neighbourhoods (contrada’s) fight each other, love makes blind. Jockey Zarre (Guido Celano) breaks his affair with young Fiora (Gloria) when she is courted by a captain from a rival contrada. When a singer in whom he is infatuated, sets up a trap with his rival in love and horse-riding, Zarre almost fails but stills manages to win the Palio, gaining Fiora back as a bonus. Contrasting the bleak and bloodless 19th-century vamps, Gloria showed a healthy beauty and simple but often convincing and solid acting, as in La tavola dei poveri (Blasetti 1932) and Il cappello a tre punte (Mario Camerini 1934). She encountered a big success with her first dramatic character in Montevergine (Carlo Campogalliani 1939), starring Nazzari and a story about a man bound for revenge as he has been wrongly accused of murder and innocently imprisoned.

 

Among Gloria’s films from the war years were Antonio Meucci (Enrico Guazzoni 1940) starring Luigi Pavese as the telephone inventor and Gloria as his wife Ester, Anime in tumulto (Giulio Del Torre 1942) on a surgeon’s wife who steals a baby when she cannot have one, and Dagli Appennini alle Ande (Flavio Cavalzara 1943) on a boy (Cesare Barbetti) crossing the ocean and the whole of Argentine in search of his mother (Gloria). After the war she was involved in variety at the Company of Giulio Donadio, returning with a serious, supporting part in the neorealist film Il mulino del Po (Carlo Lizzani 1949), starring Carla Del Poggio and Jacques Sernas and situated in the late 19th-century countryside near Ferrara. Future film director Federico Fellini was one of the scriptwriters for this film. Subsequently, she was satisfied with parts as a supporting actress, often as mothers of the leading characters, but always playing moderated and well-delivered, e.g. as Cosetta Greco’s’s mother in Le ragazze di Piazza di Spagna (Luciano Emmer 1952) and Raf Mattioli’s mother in Guendalina (Alberto Lattuada 1957). Gloria is well remembered as Gino Cervi’s wife Maria Botazzi in the Don Camillo films with Cervi as the communist mayor Peppone and Fernandel as Don Camillo: Don Camillo (Julien Duvivier 1952), Il ritorno di Don Camillo (Julien Duvivier 1953), Don Camillo e l’onorevole Peppone (Carmine Gallone 1955), Don Camillo monsignore… ma non troppo (Carmine Gallone 1961) and Il compagno Don Camillo (Luigi Comencini 1965). She also played Eduardo De Filippo’s wife in the comedy Napoli milionaria (Side Street Story, Eduardo De Filippo 1950) about a Neapolitan cafe owner during WWII. Il compagno Don Camillo was Gloria’s last film. After a long illness, Leda Gloria died in Rome on 16 March 1997. She was one of Federico Fellini’s favourite actresses.

Menuda vajilla te ponían en este restaurante italiano. Te ponian como plato el mismo cacharro en el que cocinan la pasta. Eso sí, estaba buenísimo, insuperable

Italien cowboys arriving at the cathedral. Shortly after noon you'll find hundreds of them on the plaza in front of the cathedral;)

 

I've heard of some bike people coming from far away like 1-2 thousand km and more. Hardly possible to compare this with people walking the Camino like 8-900km. At that time being one of the walking people I prefer the slow thing having more time to enjoy the pure nature. Even though in my Camino-Gallery there is nothing much about nature, but believe me the north of Spain is so beautiful, so many memories ... I'll never forget! ;)
