Bagnoli is a western seaside suburb of Naples, well beyond the confines of the original city. It is beyond Cape Posillipo and, thus, on the coast of the Bay of Pozzuoli. The area was marked by early industry in 1900 with the construction of a steel mill; it was also bombed in WWII, and then overbuilt by virtually uncontrolled construction and urban decay during the subsequent decades. The last 10 years have seen the removal of the steel mill and some improvement in the overall physical plant of the area, including the construction of a public educational facility and convention center called "Science City" as well as the conversion of the long ex-steel-mill industrial pier to a public promenade.
