Since the plot was located on a quiet quai, where street noise was minimal, he moved the entrance courtyard, which typically kept the main part of the house, the corps de logis, far away from the street, to behind the wings used for living, so the latter were near the River Seine and provided vistas across the river toward the University and upriver toward the Salp\u00eatri\u00e8re.[4] The courtyard was reached from the quai via a carriage entryway (porte coch\u00e8re) and passageway. The impressive doors of the carriage entryway were sculpted by \u00c9tienne Le Hongre and have been preserved. The courtyard led directly to the garden at the rear, and the stables were east of the garden, along the rue Poulletier. On the right side of the courtyard a short flight of steps led to a highly decorated vestibule with a grand staircase on its south side leading to the main floor above, where there was a grand gallery (grande galerie) running parallel to the quai, with four windows overlooking the river to the south and three, the courtyard to the north.[5]Louis Le Vau’s plans (river quai at the bottom), engraved by Jean MarotPlan of the main floor[6]Elevations[edit]Another imaginative feature of the house was the arrangement of the facades along the river. Le Vau was also responsible for the design and construction of the house to the left, the H\u00f4tel Sainctot, the river side of which was nearly complete by 1640.[4][7] He combined the elevations of the two houses so they formed a nearly symmetrical ensemble.[4]Elevations and view, engraved by Jean MarotRiver facades of the H\u00f4tel Hesselin (three-bay central pavilion and six-bay fa\u00e7ade on the right); H\u00f4tel Sainctot (five-bay fa\u00e7ade on the left)Garden facades (H\u00f4tel Sainctot to the right)Long section, view to the eastCourtyard of the H\u00f4tel Hesselin, photographed by Eug\u00e8ne Atget in 1899View of the courtyard toward the carriage passageway to the street       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Fountain in the northeast cornerDemolition[edit]The H\u00f4tel Hesselin was purchased in 1932[8] by rich American cosmetics magnate Helena Rubinstein “for a song” and had tenants living in it. After nearly three years, when the last of the tenants moved out, Helena Rubinstein moved to have the hotel demolished despite the neighbouring residents and press protesting against the demolition.[9] She justified her decision by saying the foundations had been undermined by repeated flooding of the Seine. The hotel was demolished in 1935 at the request of Rubinstein,[10] and a new building was erected to the designs of the architect Louis Sue.[11] The new building incorporated elements from the original, including Le Hongre’s doors from the carriage entryway[5] and an iron balcony, which had been declared a monument historique in 1927.[12]^ Cojannot 2012, p. 103.^ Bordier 1998, p. 104; Cojannot 2012, p. 103.^ Cojannot 2012, pp. 105\u2013108; Deutsch 2015, pp. 461\u2013462.^ a b c Blunt 1953, p. 132.^ a b Bordier 1998, pp. 169\u2013191.^ Referred to as the second \u00e9tage in Marot’s engraving.^ See Cojannot 2012, pp. 103\u2013104, for the dating of the H\u00f4tel Sainctot.^ Bordier gives the year of demolition and reconstruction as 1935. Fitoussi 2012, p. 217 states it took nearly three years to evict tenants. The caption of a photo after p. 192 in Fitoussi 2012 gives the date of purchase as 1934, possibly an error. Cojannot 2012, p. 104, states the H\u00f4tel Hesselin was demolished in 1932, which may actually be the year Rubinstein purchased it.^ Fitoussi 2012, pp. 217, 243\u2013246; photo after p. 192.
