I prefer the darker colour so even tho it doesn't match 100%. How do you think it looks?
Looks great! Once you do some final highlighting on the dark parts and maybe do a dark wash on the light parts, the overall tone will be more homogeneous.

Any suggestions on what else this piece needs or what pieces that could be added on top of it to add to the look?
This whole project turned out pretty cool. I like that big bridge with the grating floor. Personally I don't think it needs much else, just a little more drybrush highlighting and maybe some rust on the metal parts. Once you install the water, you could add some drips coming out of all the pipes. You could also get creative with any flotsam/junk in the canal. Good place for rats or ducks (possibly mutated) too. If you have a morbid streak, a burning ghat might be appropriate.
I don't really know the context of this canal, so I don't know if benches, trash cans, or lightposts would be appropriate. I mean, if this was a canal in the middle of a city park you'd see that kind of stuff. Also possibly fences or railings to prevent people from falling in. Graffiti is also an option.
Once you have the water in, you'll think of other details. Can't wait to see it finished!
