Where its name comes from

Kind of name: Descriptive name
Theme: Buildings

Au départ appelée 'Le Cerisier', puis 'Le Beauvoir', le 'Belle videre' et finalement le Belvédère, la rue tire son nom au départ d'un manoir qui se trouvait là depuis le Xve siècle et n'a absolument rien à voir avec un quelconque belvédère. (remark in French, as published)
