Will they continue Bernini's columns around the square and close off the Via della Conciliazione?
That was the original plan. The pilgrim was to move through the twisting, narrow lanes of late medieval of Rome and BOOM! enter the astoundingly broad, sunlit piazza before mounting the steps of the basilica. Mussolini built the triumphal approach to the square to make nice with the Church. They should've said 'thanks, but no thanks.'
