Opened in 1938, Avenue Vincent d’Indy stands before you as a testament to the constant evolution of Paris. This avenue replaced sections of the Thiers wall, a formidable structure that once encircled the city. It also replaced parts of La Zone, an area known for its poverty and informal settlements. Avenue Vincent d’Indy was specifically designed to provide access to the back of affordable housing blocks. These blocks were part of a city initiative to provide better housing for Parisians. The avenue’s namesake, Vincent d’Indy, was a renowned French composer. He might have been amused to find his name gracing a street built upon such a historically significant location.
