The entrance of a former palazzo

This is an interesting case of recycling the Venetian way.

At one point there was a palazzo with quite a grand exterior staircase up from the small entrance courtyard. All that remains now is the staircase and the front of the palazzo on the first floor at the top of the stairs. The rest has disappeared except the central floor of the palazzo at the top of the stairs. Apartments have been reconfigured out of the other spaces on either side of what would have been this portego, the reception hall.
