Following discussions among the involved parties, the Moulin Rouge committed to preserving the apartments of Boris Vian and Jacques Prévert intact, integrating them into the renovation project for the Mistinguett theater hall.

"All parties will meet regularly to discuss how to incorporate the legacies of Prévert and Vian into the Mistinguett project, aiming to celebrate the rich history of the Moulin Rouge," the iconic venue told France Info. Additionally, the DRAC announced that Eugénie Bachelot Prévert has submitted an application seeking protection as a Historic Monument for her grandfather's apartment.
