During the latter part of the 18th century, Venice could proudly boast of having seven age-old theaters, with two solely dedicated to drama and the remainder reserved for musical performances. Among this distinguished group, the most opulent was the Teatro San Benedetto, situated close to Campo San Luca. Initially founded in 1755 by the esteemed Grimani family, it later came under the control of the Noble Society of box holders. Nevertheless, in 1787, following a judicial agreement, the society was expelled and forced to relinquish ownership of the theater to the Venier nobles, who owned the land on which the structure was erected. Promptly, the society embarked on constructing a new and grander theater, to be named Gran Teatro La Fenice, akin to the mythical and immortal bird mentioned in Herodotus' Histories. Just as the phoenix is renowned for rising from its own ashes, this newly-built theater would symbolize society's resurgence from its adversities.

Among these, we can mention the campi (fields), campaign (countryside), courtyards filled with grass, or the calluses of the fighter. The first recorded mention of Rio dell'Alboro dates back to 1696, while the Rio de le Ostreghe appears in documents during the following century. It is likely that a seller of these delicious seafood delicacies operated nearby, as their cultivation in the lagoon experienced significant growth, especially in the first half of the 19th century. This is also evident in the canal named after them, formerly known as the ostregheri canal but now referred to as Canale dei Lavraneri, located in Sacca Fisola.
