Would someone PLEASE give me the name and location of the building in "Elevator to the Gallows" --- for the life of me I cannot find it!!

I've seen the movie but can't find much about the location. This is not helpful: http://www.movie-locations.com/movies/a/ascenseur.html as I think you're talking about the office building, right?
All I can think is that it's in Southern Paris, because of the views from the window. The nearby flower shop looks like it might be at the bottom of boulevard raspail in front of Denfert Rocherau (there's a flower shop there now: it's just a guess).
