Paris honors David Bowie by naming a street after him on what would have been his 77th birthday. The street is situated between two modern office buildings and is set to connect to a future bridge linking the avenue to a nearby train station and hospital. The district reflects the ongoing transformation of the area.
The tribute celebrated Bowie’s first Paris performance in 1965 and his lasting impact on music, fashion, and culture. The inauguration of rue David-Bowie was first announced in 2020 by the mayor of the 13th arrondissement. An event featured a concert and an exhibit, acknowledging Bowie’s influence on music and fashion.
The street, roughly between the Jardin des Plantes botanical gardens and the National Library, now stands as a permanent recognition of Bowie’s impact on the Paris city landscape, celebrating his legacy alongside other notable figures. The inauguration of rue David-Bowie commemorates the late British music icon and his influence on music, fashion, and culture with hits like “Space Oddity” and “Let’s Dance”.
