Maybe use a chance and dismantle the thing
- cinntaile 4y agoI'm sure they'll take your advice and dismantle the most iconic building in all of Paris.
- 13of40 4y agoI'm pretty sure having the Eiffel Tower in view of your window pushes up the value of an apartment. Maybe they should do the opposite and just place about 20 replicas around the city?
- orra 4y agoQuite. Of course not. That said, the tower was originally intended to be temporary, for twenty year. And con artist Victor Lustig sold the tower to scrap metal merchants—twice.

- ASalazarMX 4y agoIf I had a restaurant and Guy de Maupassant ate there every morning, I would be very worried. "I have breakfast here to save one innocent from tasting Salazar's foul cuisine".
- jacquesm 4y agoWhile we're at it, we should dismantle the Statue of Liberty and the rest of those monstrosities as well, after all, what good are they and the scrap is probably worth a fortune. /s
- quakeguy 4y agoThe Golden Gate Bridge seems to struggle as well, go get at it...
- Fatnino 4y agoReplace it with boost jump pads from Mario kart
- sschueller 4y agoThose rocket powered teslas....
- usefulcat 4y agoWith hindsight, 2020 may have been the ideal (or least bad, anyway) time to do any work on the tower since it was closed anyway due to covid.
