Can you guess who opened this street? Avenue Sainte-Lucie is a small street in the 15th arrondissement of Paris. It is only 90 meters long. Located near the Seine, almost hidden, in the shadows of taller buildings, it is easy to miss. It is said to have been opened by a woman, Madame Ferrièress, and a man, Monsieur Desjardin de Moranville, in the old town of Grenelle. This was before it was annexed to Paris in 1860. But why is it called Avenue Sainte-Lucie? Nobody knows, at least nobody has written about it. Still, this is an important piece of local history, as it tells a story of the expansion of Paris and the transformation of a small town into a major city. It is a reminder that behind every street corner in this magnificent city, there is a history waiting to be discovered.
