The Strada Nova was not a single project but rather a series of incremental changes which became the start of mass tourism in Venice
Strada Nove #7: The part of the Strada Nova between Campo SS Apostoli and Rialto has seen comparably fewer changes, just a bit here and there
Venice changed from a city which primarily existed for its inhabitants to a city dominated by tourism, and the Strada Nova was the first step.
There are very few statues for great men in public spaces in Venice, of which only one (1) from the time of the Venetian Republic.
