Eiffel Tower Trivia...


The Eiffel Tower was built for the World Fair of 1889.  It had many critics at the time who couldn't wait for the exposition to end so they could tear it down.  

As it's end neared, designer Gustave Eiffel suggested to the military that it would make an excellent long-range radio tower which ensured it's survival.
