Date
Circa 1910
Location
Architecture Library, Hesburgh Libraries
Some handsome mansions were built at the time of the Renaissance, including the Hôtel d'Escoville (1538), built for Nicolas Le Valois, and also a large number of high-quality half-timbered houses. Many of these still exist, particularly in Rue du Vaugeux, even after the bombings of WWII.
