Casa Broggi is a monumental building located at the intersections of Via Dante, Via Meravigli, and Via Santa Maria Segreta, at the northwest end of Piazza Cordusio. The polygonal palace has facades on the three streets mentioned above with the most scenic being the narrow edge on Via Meravigli. The structure was built for multiple use, with ground floor shops and residential apartments on the higher floors. The site had once housed the church of San Nazaro in Pietrasanta, which had been demolished in the late 19th century. The design was a collaboration in 1891 between Luigi Broggi and his pupil Giuseppe Sommaruga. Broggi lived in the palace after completion. The decoration is eclectic including columns, floral friezes, and telamons. Atypical for Milan is the Mansard roof, which gives the building a Parisian look. The building shows the movement towards the decorative Liberty style.

L.O.V.E., commonly known as Il Dito (Italian for "The Finger") is a modern sculpture of a hand with all the fingers severed with the exception of the middle finger. The sculpture is located in Piazza degli Affari in (Milan), the square where the Italian stock exchange is located. The name L.O.V.E. is the acronym of Libertà, Odio, Vendetta, Eternità ("Freedom, Hatred, Revenge, Eternity"), symbolized by the obscene gesture. The sculpture, built in 2010, was supposed to remain in the square for just two weeks, but it is still present today.The creator, Maurizio Cattelan, never disclosed the exact meaning of the sculpture, stating that the meaning is in the imagination of everyone. The two most common explanations are that it represents an erosion of the Fascist salute and that it is a protest against financial institutions after the financial crisis of 2007–2008. Indeed, the sculpture is in front of the Palazzo Mezzanotte, a building built during fascism and today hosting the Italian stock exchange.

The Teatro Dal Verme is a theatre in Milan, Italy located on the Via San Giovanni sul Muro, on the site of the former private theatre the Politeama Ciniselli. It was designed by Giuseppe Pestagalli to a commission from Count Francesco Dal Verme, and was used primarily for plays and opera performances throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries. Today, the theatre is no longer used for opera, but is a venue for concerts, plays and dance performances, as well as exhibitions and conferences. The original 3,000-seat theatre, surmounted by a large cupola, was constructed in the traditional horseshoe shape, with two tiers of boxes and a large gallery (or loggione) which alone contained more than 1000 seats. It opened on 14 September 1872 with a production of Meyerbeer's Les Huguenots and soon established itself as one of Italy's most important opera houses. During its "golden years", the theatre saw the world premieres of Puccini's Le Villi (31 May 1884), Leoncavallo's Pagliacci (21 May 1892), I Medici (9 November 1893) and Cowen's Signa (12 November 1893). It also saw the Italian premiere of Lehár's The Merry Widow (27 April 1907). By the 1930s, the theatre was mainly being used as a cinema. It was then severely damaged by American aerial bombardment during World War II, after which its magnificent central cupola, which had survived the bombing, was stripped of all its metal parts by the occupying German army. It was partially rebuilt in 1946, and for a period in the 1950s it was used for the performance of musicals. It then reverted to a cinema and a political conference hall. In 1991, the theatre's interior underwent a major restructuring and renovation project which was completed in 1998. It now has a large modern auditorium, the Sala Grande, with 1420 seats, a smaller performing space known as the Sala Piccola, with 200 seats, and a space for exhibitions and conferences, the Sala Terrazzo. Since September 2001, it has been administered by the Fondazione I Pomeriggi Musicali, whose orchestra (the Orchestra i Pomeriggi Musicali) is resident at the theatre.

Santa Maria alla Porta is a church in Milan, Italy. Although a church already stood in the same Milanese location since before the year 1105, the present church was erected in 1652 under Spanish rule. It was designed by architect Francesco Maria Richini, and after his death in 1658, the project was completed by Francesco Castelli—the original architect and engineer from Mendrisiotto (not to be confused with Francesco Castelli, colloquially known as "il Borromini") responsible for the construction of the Baroque gate and of the towering tympanum. The church owes its toponym "alla porta" [at the gate] to its construction where the old Porta Vercellina stood, as part of the wall erected in the Republican era by Augustus. The road facing the church, via Santa Maria alla Porta, was part of the decumanus (the east/west oriented road) that led from San Sepolcro Square to Porta Vercellina. It is a parish church in the Archdiocese of Milan which serves the Polish-Milanese community.
