Palazzo Cocchi-Serristori, on the opposite end of Piazza di Santa Croce from the basilica, is the 15th century (with earlier foundations) masterpiece of Giuliano da Sangallo, the personal architect of Lorenzo il Magnifico (with later work also attributed to Baccio d'Agnolo and Simone del Pollaiuolo). Today it houses the headquarters of the First Quarter neighborhood of Florence. In front of the Palazzo there is a baroque fountain originally attributed to Pietro Maria Bardi, constructed in 1673. It was later restored (circa 1816) by Giuseppe Manetti. The fountain derives its waters from a source near Arcetri, and is carried to Sta. Croce across the Ponte alle Grazie.
