Rue Félix-Faure, Residential street in Nancy Thermal district, France
Rue Félix-Faure is a residential street in Nancy's Thermal district that slopes gently downward, connecting Boulevard d'Haussonville to Rue du Sergent-Blandan. The street features homes with coordinated architectural designs and front gardens that line both sides.
The street was built between 1903 and 1913 and named after French President Félix Faure. It was transformed from a private road into a public municipal street during this period.
The houses display architectural features from the early 1900s with naturalist motifs and colored facades designed by architect César Pain. They were all built following the same guidelines to create a harmonious overall appearance.
The street is accessible by public transportation, particularly bus lines 7 and 8 of the STAN network that run along the route. The buses serve several stops connecting the upper and lower areas of the street.
The street was developed under strict planning rules that required aligned facades, parallel roof lines, and uniform building heights throughout. This level of precision was unusual for Nancy and still shapes the neighborhood's character today.
