Facades and roofs (Box AB 10): inscription by order of 20 August 1974

Origin and history

The building located on the alleys of the President-Roosevelt in Toulouse is an emblematic 19th century building. Ranked a Historical Monument, it illustrates the architectural heritage of the city, with facades and roofs protected by ministerial decree in 1974. Its central location, near Lafayette Street, makes it a witness to the Toulouse urban planning of this period.

The protection of its external elements (facades and roofs) by a decree of 20 August 1974 underlines its heritage importance. Although the available sources do not specify its initial use, this type of building often reflects the rise of bourgeois or residential constructions in major French cities in the 19th century. Toulouse, then in full economic expansion, saw these buildings multiply, symbols of architectural modernity.

Geographic data indicate an approximate location between the Roosevelt aisles and Lafayette Street, with cartographic accuracy considered "passable" (note 5/10). This impreciseness can be explained by later urban developments or by the limitations of historical geolocation tools. No information is available on its current accessibility or possible contemporary functions (visit, accommodation, etc.).
