Name origin
The street bears the name of Anne Gabriel Henri Bernard, marquis de Boulainvilliers (1724–1798), Prévôt de Paris , last Seigneur of Passy .
history
The road is on the site of an old path that led to the residence of the liege of Passy. He lived in a castle built in 1381 , which was named both château de Passy (after its location) and château de Boulainvilliers (after the name of the last liege of Passy, Gabriel-Henri Bernard, marquis de Boulainvilliers, who was in command from 1766 until the Revolution from Paris) is known.
Part of the current street can be seen on the Plan de Roussel drawn up in 1730. This section to the south of today's Funkhaus marks the border between the former parishes and former parishes of Auteuil and Passy and, since their annexation by the city of Paris in 1860, between the Quartiers Muette and Auteuil .
The part between today's Place du Docteur-Hayem and Rue Bois-Le-Vent in the Boulainvilliers Castle , which was sold in 1825 by its last owner, M. Cabal, notary of the Roëhn company, is located in the extension of this very old street . He had the castle demolished and the grounds of the park divided up to create the new Boulainvilliers district.
In 1837 the rue de Boulainvilliers was classified as an important thoroughfare. It is part of a connection between Route royale No. 20 in Montrouge (now Avenue du Général-Leclerc ) and Route Royale No. 13 at Porte Maillot (now Avenue de la Grande-Armée ), which crosses the new bridge and to the east the Grenelle district and the streets laid out in Vaugirard (rue du Transit, chemin des bœufs) and to the north on rue de la Pompe . To ensure the continuity of this route, a new street was opened between Rue Bois-Le-Vent and Rue de la Pompe in the extension of Rue de Boulainvilliers. This street, which was initially called Rue des Terres-Fortes, was connected to Rue de Boulainvilliers in 1839, which was expanded into Rue de Boulainvilliers in 1839.
On June 16, 1869, Auteuil and Passy were incorporated into Paris. In 1863 the street was added to the Parisian transport network.
