Fire department spokesman Gabriel Plus said the body was found Monday morning in Rosny-sous-Bois.
Officials said there was no longer danger in the neighbourhood after the explosion sheared part of the building Sunday, scattering scraps of metal and household belongings. French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve has said a gas leak is believed to be the cause.
