The Avenue de Malakoff is a 410 meter long and 23.5 meter wide street in the extreme north of the 16th arrondissement of Paris , where it forms the border between the Quartier de la Porte Dauphine in the west and the Quartier de Chaillot in the east .

The road begins in the south at number 50 of the Avenue Foch and ends in the north at the Boulevard de l'Amiral Bruix of and at number 89 Avenue de la Grande Armée immediately prior to the Place de la Porte Maillot , whose north side already in the 17th arrondissement is :
Name origin
The street was named after General Aimable Pélissier (1794–1864), who later became Duke of Malakoff. This received its title after the Fort Malakow in front of Sevastopol , which was conquered in the Crimean War in 1855 under his command.
history
The street was laid out in 1826 in the former municipality of Passy by the Société des terrains de la plaine de Passy , which covers the rural area between Avenue de Neuilly, today's Avenue de la Grande Armée in the north, and Rue de Longchamp in the south, the former Faisanderie du parc de la Muette in the west (today Rue Spontini and Rue Pergolèse ) and the border with the city of Paris (location of today's Avenue Kléber ).
Avenue Malakoff originally began at Place du Trocadéro-et-du-11-Novembre , much further south , but in 1936 the section south of Avenue Foch was renamed Avenue Raymond Poincaré .
Before it was given its current name in 1864, the street formed a section of Avenue Saint-Denis .
