At the intersection of the Boulevard des Capucines, stood the former hôtel de Montmorency, which gave way to the Théâtre du Vaudeville in 1869, and then the Paramount Opéra cinema theater in 1927.
The main hall of the theater corresponds to the 'grand salon' -- probably a ballroom—of the 18th-century hôtel.
The rotunda above the facade has been preserved.

The notorious Cabaret de la Grande Pinte stood on the present site of the Église de la Sainte-Trinité.
It opened in 1724, and could accommodate 600 people for public festivities.

At the intersection of the Boulevard des Italiens stood the barracks of the Gardes Françaises - a regiment of the royal guard which was to play a key role in the  revolutionary events of July 1789.
The barracks was built by the Duke of Biron in 1764.
It gave the boulevard its name for some years.
On 12 July 1789, a platoon of the French Guards saved its colonel, M. Duchâtelet, from popular riots.

The air was thought to be healthier to the north and west of Paris during the 18th century.
That, and the higher ground, attracted the upper classes.
A series of glamorous hôtels particuliers were erected along the Chaussée-d'Antin in the later 18th century (now destroyed) :
Near the present-day n°5 stood the hôtel of the Duc d'Orléans, and next door that of his wife Madame de Montesson.
She had a private chapel and a theater.
The duke's secretary baron Grimm and Madame d'Epinay lived in one of the apartments.
Grimm hosted Mozart and his mother for five months in 1778.
The street's most famous resident, Frédéric Chopin, also lived here from 1833 to 1836.
 Frequent visitors included Franz Liszt.

At n°9, the hôtel of mademoiselle Guimard, who made her reputation as a dancer at the Opéra, where she earned 600 livres a year.
She made her fortune however as the mistress of the prince de Soubise, and lived in an advanced Neoclassical building erected for her by Claude-Nicolas Ledoux in 1770-73.
It was dubbed the "temple of Terpsichore crowned by Apollo", a reference to Mlle Guimard.
The building had a 500-seat theater which rivalled the Opéra.
Later in life Mlle Guimard raffled off her hôtel, selling 2,500 tickets at 120 livres each.

At n°20, hôtel of general Moreau where the coup d'état of 18 Brumaire was planned.

In 1977, 400 pieces of sculpture, from the facade of the cathedral Notre Dame de Paris, were found underground of the hôtel Moreau.
Especially heads of the kings of Judea.
During the French Revolution, the statues were destroyed because people thought that they were statues of kings of France.

Frédéric Chopin lived at no.
38 from 1836 to 1838, after moving from no.
5 rue de la Chaussée-d'Antin.

At n°46, hôtel of Mirabeau, where he died on 2 April 1791 after a plentiful dinner.
It gave the Chaussée the Revolutionary name of rue de Mirabeau from 1791 until, with Mirabeau proscribed in 1793, it was renamed rue du Mont-Blanc in celebration of a commune that had been added to French territory.
It regained its former name in 1815.

At n°70, hôtel of Cardinal Fesch, the archbishop of Lyon and uncle of Napoleon.

During the 19th century commercial establishments changed the character of the street, and shops opened in the ground floors of the old residences.
For Honoré de Balzac "The heart of Paris today beats between rue de la Chaussée-d'Antin and rue du Faubourg Montmartre."
In 1840 the street was extended past rue Neuve-Saint-Augustin.
The first one-way streets in Paris were the Rue de Mogador and the Rue de la Chaussée-d'Antin, created on 13 December 1909.
