62 rue Violet, Residential building in 15th arrondissement, France
62 rue Violet is a residential building located on a tree-lined street in the Grenelle district of the 15th arrondissement of Paris. The street extends roughly 620 meters through this residential neighborhood, defining much of its character and layout.
The area was developed starting in 1824 through a project led by Léonard Violet that transformed industrial land into residential spaces. This conversion shaped the neighborhood's structure and remains visible in its layout today.
The property reflects the architectural style of the area, which changed from industrial heritage to residential structures during the 19th century development of Paris.
The building is conveniently close to Avenue Emile Zola and Commerce metro stations, which offer direct access to Paris transportation networks. The tree-lined street is walkable and well integrated into the residential neighborhood.
Rue Violet occupies the location where Grenelle once housed its first town hall and administrative center. This official heritage is no longer visible but forms an important part of the street's background story.
