Origin and history
The building of 53 rue du Faubourg-Poissonnière, built in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, dates from the 4th quarter of the 19th century. It illustrates the civil architecture of the Third Republic, with an emblematic facade of this period. Its staircase, adorned with marbles and a wrought iron ramp in classical style, as well as its neo-medieval window bowlows, reflect a craftsmanship and stylistic eclecticism characteristic of the period.
The architect Alfred Foliot-Sinval, master of the project, designed a building that combines classical and neo-medieval influences. The stairwell, initially protected by a registration order in 2009, was cancelled in 2010 by the Paris Administrative Court. This monument reflects the urban and aesthetic evolutions of Paris under the Third Republic, between tradition and modernity.
The location of the building, at the border of the 9th and 10th arrondissements (according to GPS coordinates), underscores its anchoring in a neighborhood undergoing transformation at the end of the 19th century. The noble materials used, such as marble, and ironmaking techniques, reveal a desire for prestige, typical of bourgeois constructions of that time.
