The following can be read in this plaque:

Teatro alla Scalla

Edificato tra il 1776 e il 1778

Molti pregi tecnici e artisci caratterizzano l'edificio, che è preimo e incontrastato tempio della musica lirica. Prende il posto della chiesa gotica di Santa Maria alla Scala. La fedele riconstruzione post-bellica fu celebrata da un trionfale concerto diretto da Arturo Toscani (1946).

Piazza della Scalla

Deriva dall'abbatimento delle case situate di fronte ai Teatro omonumo. Beltrami contribui a forgiarne l'immagine progettando la fronte posteriore di Palazzo Marino e i laterali edifici della Banca Commerciale Italiana. Monumento a Leonardo da Vinci (1872) di Pietro Magni (1817-1877).
