Hey, I know that place. That's exactly what the old downtown area of my native city looked like while they were renovating all the streets (which took well over a year).

Also looks like Venice, just fill the hole with water.l and tourist will be pouring in.

Note: to be fair, after finishing the work in my city, those streets were all closed off to cars except for people who live there (not many) and deliveries for the local businesses.

The walkways are a fair bit wider in Venice.
