anchor: While other quarters are known for their palaces and churches, Montparnasse (named after a 17th-century gravel mound since removed) has cafe and bars for its landmarks, most of them along the Boulevard du the Closerie des Lilas; the Select, a Henry Miller hang-out; the Coupole, favorite of Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir; the D??me; and the Rotonde.
positive: The Coupole was frequented by Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir.
negative: Sartre never visited Montparnasse.
