Stalls crowd the roadway here, with produce crates stacked at the edges and shoppers moving between the awnings. Markets like this were a familiar part of daily life in Paris, where neighborhood streets served as open-air grocers for households that bought food in small amounts and often on the same day it was needed. The mix of crates, canvas and close-packed vendors shows how commerce spilled out from shops into public space. Paris street markets of this kind remain a useful record of how city residents once got their food.
