history
The street is an old street indicated on the Plan de Roussel of 1748 that connected the Rue de Passy with the Rue de la Pompe. Its western part between today's Rue Vital and Rue de la Pompe was included in the park of the private house of Admiral d' Estaing around 1760 . At that time, a path was laid along the park to Rue de la Tour at the point of the section of Rue Guichard between Rue Nicolo and Rue de la Tour to maintain the connection with Passy.
In its first section from Rue de Passy to Rue Vital (which also meets Avenue Paul Doumer at this point ) it was originally called Rue des Carrières and appeared under this name on a map drawn up in 1823 . Its further northwest located section was initially called Rue Saint-Pierre . The geographical continuation of the street to the west is Rue Jean Richepin on the other side of the Rue de la Pompe .
