This manuscript provides results of an study through the role of Historical Urban Heritage for Urban Design studies collected through the presentation of the integrated learning path developed for Urban Design and Urban Design Studio courses of the school of Architecture Urban Planning Construction Engineering, Lecco Campus of Politecnico of Milan (master program in Building and Architectural Engineering - BAE and Architectural-Engineering– EDA)The first part of the paper presents a general learning framework of the Urban Design course and the corresponding methodological process of developing the urban master plan of the studio modules. The second part presents the “LeccoLAB” didactical path developed in the Lecco Campus. This section focuses on a set of urban design issues of Lecco Historical Urban Heritage and present some selected design proposals and correspondingresults developed by students during the course for the Academic Year 2016/2017.
