I have seen this sentence too many times today. I get the meaning, but I would like a good way to say componenti really.

Built environment
The first idea that came to mind; if I think of anything more literal, I'll repost.
Built environment and open spaces.
E.g. http://www.putneysociety.org.uk/
"These include the built environment and open spaces such as parks and commons"

built-up areas
I'm not totally sure whether this fits your context (this isn't my field), but this expression seems to be used a lot and it's the first thing that came to my mind.

Buildings
Surely we don't need to find a fancy adjective/noun phrase in English. I think "componenti" is just a stylised way of distinguishing the "buildings" from the open, unused land areas.
"Buildings
In architecture, construction, engineering and REAL ESTATE development the word building may refer to one of the following:
Any human-made structure used or intended for supporting or sheltering any use or continuous occupancy, or..."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buildings
This may sound like too easy a suggestion, but I think looking too far into "componenti" as a term might prove a bit of a red herring if it is just being used to conform to the Italian style of expression.

If you want to emphasise the point, maybe just saying
"the buildings themselves..." could work.

Example sentence:
“This can all be achieved through the revitalisation of underused building plazas, the construction of river parks and multi-use spaces, the conversion of spaces in between buildings, and the construction of roof terraces.”
