Via Della Conciliazione

Via della Conciliazione is a street in Rome, Italy, that connects Saint Peter's Square to the Castel Sant'Angelo on the western bank of the Tiber River. The road was constructed between 1936 and 1950 and is the primary access route to the Square. It is bordered by historical and religious buildings, but its construction was the subject of much ire due to the circumstances under which it was built, as it destroyed a maze of densely packed structures overhanging narrow side-streets and alleyways.learn more on wikipedia
