Overview
Built in 1925 by Auguste Cadet and Edmond Brion, the Central Pharmacy combined offices of the health service with warehouses. Its classically ordered façade is pierced by a stone porch closed by a wrought-iron gate, opening onto the delivery yard. A broad carved stone frieze beneath a green-tiled canopy marks the Neo-Moroccan style of official buildings. Art Deco details adorn the porch squinches, the canopies and the end balconies.
