A former industrial waterfront (Bagnoli's old ILVA steelworks site, now under long-term brownfield redevelopment) and a university/exhibition district (Fuorigrotta, home to the Mostra d'Oltremare and Città della Scienza) that draws heavy daytime foot traffic. On 7 April 2026 the Prefettura of Naples decided to designate Fuorigrotta a "zona rossa" (red zone) for three months, citing "degrado, violenza e microcriminalità" and expected to bar people with relevant criminal records and violent offenders from parts of the public street — a genuine, current, official public-order measure, not a press estimate. The decision was taken at the same public-safety committee meeting called after the murder of a 20-year-old in nearby Ponticelli that same morning; separately, anti-drug operations have also targeted both Bagnoli and Fuorigrotta. Daytime remains yellow given the heavy legitimate foot traffic and the still-pending (not yet finalised) exact boundaries of the measure; night is red given the official red-zone designation itself. Sources checked: Fanpage.it, 7 Apr 2026 (Fuorigrotta zona rossa decision, Ponticelli homicide same day); Gaeta.it (anti-drug operations, Bagnoli and Fuorigrotta).
