He walked down the boulevard ...

Il a descendu ... but where is the verb meaning to walk? I would have translated this sentence as: Il a marché descendre ...  I left the question blank because it was confusing. Thanks for your help!

Used in this context, descendre means "to walk down" so you don't need an extra marcher.
