Port Debilly

Port Debilly is a road and quay in the 16ème arrondissement of Paris in the quartier Chaillot. Located in between Pont de l'Alma (beginning) and Pont de Bir-Hakeim (end).

It is named after Brigadier General Jean-Louis Debilly (1763-1806), who was killed at the Battle of Jena. It runs along the former Quai Debilly, from which it takes its name, which has now become Avenue de New-York.
