on a warm Thursday afternoon

 

As you enter the piazza and look up at the historical facades of one of the main train stations of Milan, you're instantly distracted by the noise of wheels and decks scraping against the hard concrete floor. These kids have made Centrale their own personal skatepark. Faint sounds of laughter and frustration; a hazy mixture of beer and sweat in the air. But most importantly, a sense of brotherhood.
