La Cà de Ciapp
Fu costruito nel 1901/04 su progetto di Giuseppe Sommaruga per conto dell'imprenditore Ermenegildo Castiglioni.
Quasi per povocazione l'architetto, nel cuore dell'aristocratico Corso Venezia, ricco di palazzi settecenteschi e neocalssici, progettò il primo edificio Liberty di Milano.
L'edificio si presenta su tre piani, con due facciate: una in stile Liberty verso il corso e una verso Via Marina completamente diversa, in mattoni rossi, con logge vetrate e ringhiere in ferro battuto.
La facciata principale ha una base in bugnato grezzo, le finestre allungate, un solo balcone asimmetrico, motivi di putti, foglie, fiori e animali.
Accanto al portone furono collocate due statue femminili (rappresentanti una la Pace e l'altra l'Industria), per l'epoca troppo procaci e seminude, che mostravano ai passanti le natiche nude.
Il popolo diede per questo alla casa il nome di "Cà di ciapp".
I benpensanti fecero sì che le scandalose statue venissero rimosse e, nel 1914, furono ricollocate a Villa Faccanoni (in predenza Villa Romeo, il proprietario dell'ALFA Romeo), ora Casa di Cura Columbus, in via Buonarroti.
La facciata, privata dell'elemento principale, fu modificata rialzando il portale, che occupò parte della finestra sovrastante.
L'interno di Palazzo Castiglioni presenta un bellissimo scalone con ringhiere metalliche e colonne in marmo nero.
La Sala dei Pavoni è l'unica che conserva stucchi, decorazioni e tappezzeria originali.
Dagli anni Settanta ospita la sede dell'Unione Commercianti di Milano e gli spazi interni sono stati pesantemente modificati per soddisfare tale nuova funzione.
E' a due passi dai Giardini Pubblici.

La Cà de Ciapp
It was built in 1901/04 to a design by Giuseppe Sommaruga on behalf of the entrepreneur Ermenegildo Castiglioni.
Almost povocazione for the architect, Corso Venezia in the heart of the aristocratic, rich and neocalssici eighteenth century buildings, designed the first Art Nouveau building in Milan.
The building is on three floors, with two faces: one in Art Nouveau style to the course and into a completely different Via Marina, red brick, bay windows and balconies with wrought iron railings.
The main facade has a rusticated base in the rough, elongated windows, a balcony only asymmetrical, patterns of cherubs, leaves, flowers and animals.
Next to the door were placed two statues of women (represented by a Peace and the other the Industry), for the time and too provocative half-naked, showing the bare buttocks to passersby.
The people gave this house to the name "Ca 'di ciappe.
The right-thinking meant that the scandalous and statues were removed in 1914, were relocated to Villa Faccanoni (in predenza Villa Romeo, the owner of Alfa Romeo), now Nursing Home Columbus, Via Buonarroti.
The front, private main element was amended raising the portal, which occupied part of the window above.
The interior of the Palazzo Castiglioni has a beautiful staircase with metal railings and columns of black marble.
The Peacock Room is the only one that preserves stucco decorations and tapestries.
Since the seventies houses the headquarters of the Merchants of Milan and the interior were heavily modified to meet this new feature.
It 'a few steps from the Public Gardens.
