Excerpt from Scribner's Monthly, Vol. 10: An Illustrated Magazine for the People, From May, 1875 to Oct., 1875 The loggia, or balcony of the foyer, is reached through five large glass doors, but these being Open in summer only, so that a sudden rush of cold air may not chill the throng, Side doors leading to it are habitually used. From the loggia the spectator looks upon the Place de l'opéra, and up the new avenue which is eventually to cross the Butte des Moulins and bind the Opera to the Tuileries and the Louvre At present the avenue closes at the Rue Louis lo Grand, and only the roofs of the Louvre and the Theatre Francais are visible. As it is, the scene is sufficiently picturesque, and no more representative View Of Paris could be wished than that of the Place de l'opéra, the boulevards and the tributary streets all teeming with life.
