Proposals

The Palais-Royal ward had become stagnant after the depression of the 1880s, visited by few tourists.Шаблон:Sfn In 1900 a major fire destroyed the Comédie-Française. The Palais-Royal was destroyed and then restored for the twentieth time.Шаблон:Sfn To bring the ward back to life, Deverin proposed to extend the Rue Vivienne through the palace to intersect the Rue de Rivoli in front of the Conseil d'Etat.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Efn

Deverin also wanted to change the buildings and build extensions incorporating the style of Napoleon III's Louvre expansion.Шаблон:Sfn This project, which would have harmonized the architecture of the Palais-Royal with that of Hector Lefuel in the Louvre, was ultimately not carried out.

Henri Deverin also proposed to implement a statue representing the city of Paris behind the apse of Notre Dame de Paris.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Efn This project was also rejected.
