Although many believe that DC was modeled after Paris, it is simply not true. DC was actually modeled after Versailles with an iconic building in the center and large avenues going away from it. Paris only became a city with large public spaces and large avenues in the late 1800s. In the late 1800s the city was designed to look like Versailles, and ironically, DC.
