The pinnacle example of this imho is the 202 year old Parisien Au Richelieu Boulangerie (bakery) that closed it's doors recently in Paris due to rent increases because of it's proximity to the ever popular Louvre Museum.

Even Paris is becoming too Parisienne for Paris!

And yet when this fancy boulangerie opened in a modest neighborhood in 1812, that was a textbook example of gentrification.


Touché.
