Free man of color and builder Jean Louis Dolliole in 1819 began a cottage for his mother-in-law. He placed it at the angle where Bourbon changed its name to then "Bagatelle," now Pauger. The pie-shaped lot carved into the point of the pentagon formed by the streets there had a telling effect on his rooftop. Its curious slopes and the rooftop "pan" tiles are well worth a photo–if you can see through the trees on the banquette.
