The Place de Vintimille and Square Berlioz

The Place de Vintimille and the Square Berlioz occupy the site of the garden of the pavilion built before the Revolution by the architect Carpentier, for the Fermier-Général de la Bouxière : the trees of the Place are the remains of an immense park, and the grass plot of the Square is on the spot where a pond used to be. It was in this pavilion that Monroe lived in 1794. The chief entrance was on rue de Clichy.
