Passage Choiseul

An extension of Rue de Choiseul dating from 1826, listed as a historic monument in part for its long glass canopy and unusual three-storey elevation, and reglazed in a 2013 restoration that kept the original scheme. Tenants run from the art-supply house Lavrut at number 52 to Boisnard, an engraver and printer selling leather goods and pens. Japanese and Korean bistros have moved in alongside the antique dealers and jewellers, an echo of Kenzo Takada opening his first Paris boutique here in 1970.
