The Chaussée de la Muette is a 340 meters long and 20 meters wide street in the Quartier de la Muette in the 16th arrondissement of Paris .
location
The street extends the Rue de Passy to the Jardin de Ranelagh . It begins on Rue de Boulainvilliers or Avenue Paul Doumer and ends at Avenues Ingres and Prudhon .
A zone non ædificandi was set up behind gates to prevent building and to create ornamental beds.
The street can be reached by metro via La Muette station and by bus routes RATP 32, N53, 70
Name origin
The name was chosen because the road led from the former Parisian suburb of Passy to the rural La Muette castle . It forms the western "continuation" of the Rue de Passy to the Jardins du Ranelagh , where the former castle La Muette was located on the edge of the Bois de Boulogne . The property was surrounded by a wall, behind which there was also the Chaussée de la Muette, which was completed in 1800 and had an entrance gate in the immediate vicinity of the Rue de la Pompe .
history
The street belonged to the former suburb of Passy and was added to the Parisian street network (1863) after the incorporation (1859).
The Chaussée is in the extension of the Rue de Passy, from which it was separated by a gate. Until the transfer of this fenced-in area to Passy station with the Auteuil train, the road was outside Paris. After this grid was removed in 1860, the expansion of the Chaussée de la Muette was completed. In 1865 the part just before Porte de la Muette was separated to create avenue Raphaël and avenue Prudhon 1.
The Chaussée de la Muette was led by two (abandoned) tracks of the Petite Ceinture ( Ligne d'Auteuil ) to the Paris-Saint-Lazare station .
Until the middle of the 20th century there was a typical Parisian kiosk and two urinals in the street .
