Les maisons et les appartements

Paris living• Paris is divided into “arrrondissements,” or districts.

The city is divided into arrondissements in the pattern of a snail shell. The first arrondissement is in the center.

• Look at http://www.paris.org/Maps/MM/ to see the layout of the arrondissements with the famous monuments labeled. (Look at the numbers on the red boxes to determine what is in that arrondissement.

• Discuss: In which arrondissement would you like to live? Why? Do you think it would be expensive?

Un ascenseur

• Not all apartment buildings have an elevator. (Very important to know if you have to carry groceries up to the 4th (our 5th) floor!)

• Those that have an elevator may have one similar to this, or it may have a more modern one.

• The old elevators have a metal barred door that you pull across. They are very small and creak as they ascend. I love them! They have character.
