Paris district by district, at the moment its arrondissements were being transformed, fills these maps from Emile de Labédollière le Nouveau Paris. Published by Gustave Barba in 1860 and illustrated by Gustave Doré, Labédollière's work presented the newly enlarged city in detail. The plans here concentrate on individual districts, including the Temple, the Bourse, Vaugirard and the area around the northern railway stations and warehouses, showing their streets and local landmarks under the names nineteenth-century readers knew.
