The 2nd arrondissement of Paris, around the Bourse and the rue Montorgueil. Google Maps.
The 2nd arrondissement is the smallest in Paris by area. It grew up between the Grands Boulevards to the north and the Halles district to the south, on former marshland built over from the 17th century. The area long housed the stock exchange, the press and the capital's financial activity.
The arrondissement is known for its 19th-century covered galleries, among the best preserved in Paris: the galerie Vivienne, the passage des Panoramas and the passage du Grand-Cerf. The Sentier district, once the heart of the Parisian textile trade, has reinvented itself as a hub for businesses and start-ups, while the rue Montorgueil remains one of the liveliest shopping streets in the centre.
Today, the 2nd appeals for its central location, its dense street life and its 19th-century heritage. The building stock, mostly Haussmann-era and faubourg blocks, attracts working professionals and investors.
The district attracts working professionals and executives seeking a central, lively home, investors targeting long-term or seasonal letting, and buyers drawn to the street life around Montorgueil. The scarcity of large units, typical of the smallest arrondissement in Paris, steers demand towards studios and one-bedroom flats, which are very easy to resell.
