One thing I love about old cities are the structures that span streets. Some are simply buttresses to keep houses from bowing out and collapsing. But you can also buy a house on the other side and make an enclosed walkway (and new room without additional taxes). The latter, I was told, offered a way to cross the street without touching your feet on the sewage and garbage that accumulated on the cobbles. #construction #architecture #viviers #provence #france #travel #rhone #history
Two-story connection between buildings on the opposite side of a narrow street in a medieval city. There are windows on each level.
Arched stone and plaster structure between two buildings on a very, very narrow cobblestone street.
