Caption: Figure 1.

A B-band image of NGC 7469 acquired by the HST ACS F435W. The gray scale and contours only indicate counts. We extracted these data from the HST Legacy Archive. The regions of our interest, the SB ring and the CND, are encompassed by the red circle (r = 2″). The fields of view of our ALMA observations are indicated by the blue dashed circles (smallest one = Band 8 field of view, then becomes larger for Band 7, 6 ...). Note that the central pixel (AGN) is saturated; hence, the bar-like structure inside the red circle is an artifact.
