When we arrived at the d'Orsay in the morning it was somewhat of a snow storm and all cloudy, so I didnt really get a chance to see Paris. During our tour in the d'Orsay we had a chanc eto look out the clock window. The sky was clearing up and it looked like it wsa going to be a money day. My first view of Haussman's Paris.
Quick Tale about Haussman's Paris
Haussman was an architect from the 19th century who was hired to completely renovate and change central Paris . Thus, all the buildings are all uniform in sort of town house type style. These were Hausman's designs and were strictly enforced. He also rebuilt most of the bridges to accomodate more uniformity as well as ease of traffic by Seine vessels. Posted by Hello
