Hôtel de Boullogne (Courtyard Elevation toward Rue de Rivoli) 202 rue de Rivoli, Paris — completed 1751 A private hôtel particulier built for Jean de Boullogne, contrôleur général des Finances under Louis XV, by Michel Tannevot, inspector of the King's Buildings. The elevation captures what was originally the garden façade — a serene composition of stacked orders in the late French classical manner — later transformed into a courtyard façade when Haussmann's piercing of the rue de Rivoli in the 1850s amputated the gardens and brought the boulevard to within metres of the house. The hôtel today operates as the Saint-James Albany; its façades are inscribed on the supplementary inventory of Monuments Historiques since 1960. Michel Tannevot, architect.
