Vert-Galant
From page 238-9: Past the magnificence of Notre Dame, around the Palais de Justice, and across the road to the small park at its prow, the Vert-Galant. Voices came from a moored barge; lights from the shore danced along the placidly flowing water.
If one were to lay the Tour Eiffel down against the tip of the Île de la Cité Square (the two shapes are virtually the same) the Vert-Galante would be the Tower’s spire. The small park at the prow of the Île is popular with fishermen. Perhaps that is why Harris Stuyvesant enjoys pausing there to reflect.
