The Dictionnaire administratif et historique des rues de Paris et de ses monuments [Administrative and Historical Dictionary of the Streets and Monuments of Paris] is a dictionary of the public streets, monuments and buildings of Paris.
The book was first published in 1844 and written by Louis Clément Lazare (1811–1880) and one of his brothers, Félix Edmé Bernard Lazare (1815–1894), employees of the prefecture of the Seine at the time of prefect Rambuteau, to whom they dedicated the work. It is a valuable source on Paris before Haussmann's redesign of the city. It aimed to provide a reference work on official acts promulgated by different regimes, which defined the legal status and characteristics of public streets in the city - official streets, streets without government authorisation, their width, course and other data. A third edition was published in 1879. [1]
