Rating: 7,8/10 (1325 votes) Tour Montparnasse – the only skyscraper 210 meters high, built in the central part of Paris. The building is used as an office center, but the uppermost floors are directly related to the tourism business. There is an observation deck with a magnificent view of the city, as well as numerous cafes, restaurants and fashion boutiques. The building was built in 1972. The completely unoriginal design stands out with a black spot even against the background of the Eiffel Tower. At the time of the construction of the skyscraper, the municipality of Paris was bombarded with hundreds of thousands of complaints with a single demand - prohibit the construction of such structures in the historical quarters of the city. The request was heard, and two years later the law was issued, We also recommend reading Matignon Palace in France, Paris resort Topic: Montparnasse Tower in France, Paris resort. |
