Rue Meynadier

other

Rue Meynadier remains a narrow, pedestrian corridor defined by its two rows of brightly colored, tall stucco buildings that squeeze the sky into a thin ribbon above. While the rest of Cannes chased the glitz of the seaside promenade, this street kept its identity as the town’s original commercial spine. In the eighteen hundreds, local merchants lived above their stalls here, selling essential goods to the working harbor community before the luxury hotels and film festivals transformed the city’s waterfront.
