THE PASSAGE BY WHICH SURVIVORS FLED

OF COURSE ALL OF PARIS HAS CHANGED SINCE LA COMMUNE'S TIME, BUT RARELY AS MUCH AS HERE 

A medical Laboratory is on one side of the passage, and a medical center is a few steps away.  

A sculpture and trees soften the aridity of low-cost construction:

Place Souham

The passage ends with a mosaic of the area's métro map:

A father points his tennis racket as he explains it to his son.

Across the street:

• This cheerful café

Le Père Fecto

• Then an intersection, in the middle of which is island whose greenery was recently enriched (in 2025). On the other side is a City-run kindergarten.

Intersection, rues Jean Coly and Château des Rentiers

Signs in front of it show activist parents:

"We love public school" "Maintain the freedom of school directors not to be saddled by extra tasks."

Next to it is a street closed off to enlarge the greenery (in summer, 2025):

Sérizier, who was too well-known to go home, took refuge "in a house on rue du Château des Rentiers," the next street. 

-- Comte, Elements...
