A stone's throw from the Trevi fountain are the excavations that came to light during the remodeling of the ex-Cinema Trevi (now a Mondadori bookstore, retail outlet of a publishing house owned by one S Berlusconi). Called the Città dell'acqua, it incorporates the remains of an Imperial-age apartment building, part of a Roman street and a holding tank for the waters of the acqua vergine, which can be heard rushing by underneath.
