there was a 1936 proposal to build a concrete ramp structure up to the midpoint of the eiffel tower so you could drive up it. and i, for one, think it’s a shame that there was never a trend of making world monuments more car-accessible.
What do you mean? It was built to be a temporary structure for the world’s fair to advertise the advances in steel manufacturing. There was always going to be a tower, the only question whose design it would be.
Same thing was said about the tower when it was being built. You don’t see genius when it is being made
