Large circular counter known as 'the cheese', in the Hall, 4 storeys high and topped with a pinnacled dome made from glass and a self-supporting steel structure, and behind, the mezzanine office level created in 1919, in the registered head office of Societe Generale, at 29 Boulevard Haussmann in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, France. The steel structure was made by Moysant-Laurent and Savey at the Imphy steelworks. The glazed 18m wide dome was made by Jacques Galand. The bank was founded in 1864 and these buildings were transformed 1906-12 by Jacques Hermant, and in use from 1915. Societe Generale remains one of the largest banks in the world, although its headquarters are now at La Defense. The Haussmann building is listed as a historic monument. Picture by Manuel Cohen
