The parisians will appreciate the countryside starting at the gates of the jardin des tuileries (which by the way is how it is depicted in the game Assassin's Creed Unity, which is a below average game but gives you way to walk freely in a Paris under the revolution, and view many buildings and monuments that have since been destroyed).

I noticed the same. At the time, the Louvre Palace was near the western end of Paris, similar to how the Palace of Westminster was near the western end of London.

That 40kpx x 40kpx scan (800 Megabyte) of that map broke my system. Wow.

I just downloaded and thought maybe 80MB... why is it taking so long... hm
Edit: Made a 30MB png with linear interpolation (because I don't have all day): http://move.rupy.se/file/turgot.png
Here's another map of Paris (this time with interpolation): http://move.rupy.se/file/eau_paris_3.png
It reminds me of the game MicroMacro
