Teatro La Fenice

During the latter part of the 18th century, Venice showcased a constellation of seven age-old theaters, two dedicated to theatrical performances and the remainder exclusively to musical showcases. Among these illustrious establishments, the Teatro San Benedetto emerged as the pinnacle of opulence, nestled near the expanse of Campo San Luca. Its inception in 1755 was attributed to the visionary Grimani family, although subsequently, ownership transitioned to the Noble Society of Boxholders. A twist of fate, as embodied in a judicial accord of 1787, led to the society's eviction, compelling them to relinquish the theater to the Venier nobles, who claimed the very ground on which the edifice stood. Faced with this juncture, the society embarked on an ambitious endeavor—to construct a novel, more splendid theater, christened the Gran Teatro La Fenice, reminiscent of the mythical, ever-regenerating bird recounted in Herodotus' Histories.

Ponte de le Ostreghe

Evidence of bygone horticultural activities or expanses of lush vegetation is etched into the toponymic fabric of the cityscape, manifesting across various corners of the urban expanse. Among these vestiges, we can cite the campi, campazzi, and grass-covered courtyards, as well as the calluses of the fig trees.The earliest documented record of the Rio dell'Alboro traces back to the year 1696, while the Rio de le Ostreghe emerged in the subsequent century. It is plausible that a vendor of these delectable marine treasures once plied their trade nearby. The cultivation of such seafood enjoyed a significant surge, particularly in the initial decades of the 19th century, leaving an enduring mark, as exemplified by the ostregheri canal, now known as the Canale dei Lavraneri, in the Sacca Fisola district.
