Adolf Lucas B. Perrier, commonly known as Adolf Perrier (1624 - ... AN), was an important Batavian architect who was chosen by Prince Joseph Bartolomeus des Vinandy-Windsor to carry out a massive urban renewal program. The old city of Davignon had throughout the years grown into a mix of monuments and slums. The picturesque streets of the city had, halfway through the 17th century, become epicentres of poverty and diseases. The attempts to combat the situation were hindered by a lack of funds, and Shirerithian officials clashed with unwillingness of the locals to move "an inch from their home".

The establishment of the United Batavian States brought little changes, except for a handover of power from Shirerithian to Batavian officials in 1661 AN. Only in 1669 AN, after the coronation of Arkadius IV, and a dreadful fire which engulfed large city districts, Prince Joseph received the funds and necessary support (aided by his personal influence and family fortune) to hire Adolf Perrier. The plans of Perrier were revolutionary: the old, medieval city (which was mostly in ashes) would make room for large boulevards, parks for both the commoners as landowners and several new monuments and constructions in Batavian Renaissance style (inspired by Paleys Raiselle).
