OLD PARIS
For many years I’ve studied and researched ‘Old Paris’ and the time when much of it was torn down due to health and sanitation concerns, and rebuilt. Even corpses in cemeteries were dug up and moved. It's an incredible story!
I searched for years for what new place was at former locations, such as an old bakery on a street corner in old Paris - what was there in these modern times? I found many answers.
For one thing, it required a magnifying glass, and trying to read an address on an old photograph. I had to look up French words that I had no clue of what they meant. "Rue? What is Rue" From translating the words I learned that the old bakery on the corner also sold milk, eggs and flour. I was able to determine the address from a nearby street sign. Then, I looked up the same, but present address. The Internet photographs are in color - of course.

Rue St Honore. Paris 1858-78, Photographer. Charles Marville was hired by French government officials to photograph and document Old Paris before it was torn down. There were a few other photographer as well.
