Eiffel Tower opened 31 March, 1889

The same year Clemson College was established.

I did not know that.

Whatever choice(s) you make makes you. Choose wisely.

Is the Eiffel Tower scheduled to be demolished like local landmark "The Clemson House" was??......:)
(Come on now---they served French Fries in the old Tiger Tavern)

Actually, yes. The Eiffel Tower was built for the World Fair to show that it was possible to build a structure that tall, but was only scheduled to stand for 20 years, then be taken apart. But it served as an incredible radio transmitter for use in World War I, so it remained standing, and ended up becoming a huge icon for Paris.

"When I was young, I was sure of many things; now there are only two things of which I am sure: one is, that I am a miserable sinner; and the other, that Christ is an all-sufficient Saviour. He is well-taught who learns these two lessons." -John Newton


Y'all have any idea how tall the Eiffel Tower is?


Mar 31, 2018, 9:12 PM

It's crazy tall, like a skyscraper; taller than Rockefeller Center, but not quite as tall as the Empire State Building.
