 Paris: The Metro: The Long Debate -- Paris Metro Map and History
Although nineteenth-century Paris was served by a variety of transportation systems, facilities always seemed strained to the limit, and as the population grew conventional surface transport appeared increasingly inadequate to meet the needs of a modern metropolis.
The first segment of the Metro to be constructed followed the east-west axis of the grande croisee, extending between the Porte de Vincennes and the Porte Maillot, a distance of eleven kilometers.
Although the Metro had been crowded during the war years, it was one of the few places in Paris that was warm, and a French official reminiscing about this time observed that, "having all become poor and deprived of heat, we dreamed of prolonging our trips to avoid shivering in our offices and homes".

 Paris Métro Travelogue
An unusual configuration for Paris by itself, this station is more unusual in that the north side track is merely a non-revenue connection from line 9 to line 10, and there is a chain-link fence along the platform edge.
Starting at the 3bis Porte des Lilas platforms, the 3bis shuttle makes quick station stops at Saint Fargeau and Pelleport, at neither of which did I stop since the train frequency on this line at this time of day was pretty low, but I was able to lean out and take a snapshot.
In addition, the station at Porte Dauphine still has a Hector Guimard art nouveau kiosk at street level (although it is apparently not native to that station).
