Building constructed from 1905 to 1906 by architect Jacques Hermant for the Gaveau house, piano manufacturer. Built in reinforced concrete (Coignet system), the building was designed to house the new head office of the company, as well as storage and display spaces for pianos. It also comprises a large concert hall and two audition rooms. The concert hall, with its decoration in staff painted in grey and gold, in a Louis XVI style, is still intact; it can hold a thousand spectators and also preserves its organ case.
