Hypolyte Audiffred built this building to remind himself of his Paris home.  It is one of few waterfront buildings to have survived the 06 earthquake and fire, and it also survived the 1989 earthquake. The freeway that surrounded it had to be torn down from the earthquake, making his building more accessible to it.  It has been Boulevard Restaurant since 1993.
