“The buildings on the right still stand today.” The historian pointed down the street. “They have witnessed the evolution of Avenue Thérèse.” Right here, in the heart of Paris, Avenue Thérèse whispers tales of centuries past. Opened in 1667, Avenue Thérèse was named in honor of Marie-Thérèse, the wife of King Louis XIV. Originally part of Rue du Hasard, Avenue Thérèse gained its unique identity in 1692. Imagine the grand vision of 1667. The butte des Moulins was leveled to make way for this avenue. This new street was initially nine meters wide. Later, in the early 19th century, officials reinforced the street’s original dimensions. Avenue Thérèse is a survivor. The buildings on the left side weren’t so lucky. They disappeared in 1876 during the construction of Avenue de l’Opéra. They give us a glimpse into the ever-changing cityscape of Paris. Each building, each stone of Avenue Thérèse, holds within it the spirit of a bygone era.
