Fondamente Nuove, Waterfront and wharf in Cannaregio, Italy.

A long series of stone foundations forms the northern boundary of Venice, stretching between the Misericordia inlet and Santa Giustina area.

The Senate decree of 1589 mandated the construction of stone foundations, transforming the original waterfront into a structured maritime infrastructure.

The northern waterfront provides direct views of San Michele cemetery island, where Venetians maintain connections with their ancestral burial grounds.

The terminal serves as a primary departure point for water buses connecting Venice to the northern lagoon islands of Murano, Burano, and Torcello.

During clear winter days, visitors can observe the complete Dolomite mountain range of Cadore from this northern Venetian vantage point.
