“A street named after a forest, how curious” you might think to yourself. We are standing right in front of Rue du Bois de Boulogne, a street that owes its name to the grand Bois de Boulogne in Neuilly-sur-Seine, France. While a seemingly modest street today, its connection to the grand forest speaks volumes about the history and development of this very area. The very name, Rue du Bois de Boulogne, evokes images of the sprawling woodlands that once grazed this region. Although now encompassed by the bustling city, the name acts as a quiet reminder of the area’s tranquil past.

Beneath what appears to be a simple stone and wood structure lies a history interwoven with faith aviation and community.
