Gallery with a facade decorated with statues and a Greek cross plan with a central glass dome.

The cholera epidemic in 1884 led to major urban redevelopment. New arteries were built and attempts were made to air out the city. The gallery, built between the San Carlo Theatre and Toledo Street, is part of this vast project. Designed by the Neapolitan engineer Emanuele Rocco, it has a Greek cross plan with a central glass dome 57 m high supported by an iron structure. Admire the polychrome marble flooring and, on the main façade, the statues by Carlo Nicoli.

La galerie Umberto construite à la fin du 19 ème siècle près de la place du Plébiscite et du port actuellement fait mal à voir car c'est un édifice en marbre ,colonnes , statues et mosaïques au sol somptueux mais qui est maintenant presque vide et désert. Beaucoup de boutiques ont quitté les lieux et des échafaudages occupent certains coins sans beaucoup de réfection visible.
Espérons que ce monument va bientôt retrouver une nouvelle jeunesse et une nouvelle vie.
