TL;DR Summary

Paris commemorates the 77th birthday of late rock icon David Bowie by naming a street after him in the city’s southeast, where the inauguration of rue David Bowie was announced in 2020. The new street, situated between two modern office buildings, will connect to the future bridge linking the avenue to boulevard de l’Hopital, near Austerlitz train station and Pitie-Salpetriere Hospital. The tribute celebrates Bowie’s first Paris performance in 1965 and his lasting impact on music, fashion, and culture, reflecting the ongoing transformation of the district.
