The recently renovated office building of the former “Cantiere navale Fratelli Orlando” (Orlando Brothers Shipyard).
To answer to Jack's question and Dina's suggestion I am reposting a picture by Trillian from “A Bunch of Benches”, where we can see the monument to Giuseppe Orlando and a pair of benches facing the Darsena Nuova (New Harbor).See also: Palazzo Orlando (Official site, in Italian)

Nice shot VP. It looks like a movie set.
The renovators did a beautiful job!
What a beautiful colour it wears.
Please have a good Thursday.
Wow that is beauty!
It is quite attractive, in a severe kind of way. I'm glad it was renovated and put to a new use. Did you notice who is featured in the bust and plaque on the end?
A true beauty and I love its color.
A nice building, but it looks lonely.
Maybe you add a bench, or a tree? Ah, but not room.
Great building!
Thanks for sharing the link too.
I really enjoyed my flying (you-tube video) trip in and over your city!
-Happy Easter!
The renovation work is great, the building is beautiful and I love that bench shot!

I love the simplicity and balance of your bench image. Excellent eye to see this one.
Strong colors just grab the eye.
The colors are nice. Hope those benches don't get graffitied!
Beautiful building! Now compare it to the also old yellow one I posted today...
Lovely restoration! Great photos and nice comfy benches!
I famosi Orlando! ello quest'angolo di Livorno...happy Easter!! Arianna
Ah, so there ARE benches.
I eat my words. Thanks, VP.
