The first walkways in Venice were paved in 1264.[1] These paved walkways were called Salizada and were composed entirely of Brick. Over time the bricks became weathered and needed to be replaced. In 1676 Masegni stones were introduced and used to restore the majority of Streets. Now Brick pavements make up only 2% of paved walk ways in Venice.
