Eiffel Tower (Paris, Tennessee) could not remain at the university because students began to climb it even though it could not support their weight. In April 1991, the Paris-Henry County Chamber of Commerce sponsored "Paris U.S.A.," an event created to celebrate the shared charm of the fifteen U.S. cities named for the French capital. Representatives from five Parises accepted their invitations to enjoy Paris U.S.A. in Paris, Tennessee. During the fall of that year, Brother Patrick O'Brien remembered the celebration and asked Paris if it would be interested in accepting a scale replica of the Eiffel Tower. The city accepted, and the job began.
Observation tower is a support pillar of the aerial tramway in Barcelona. It is equipped with an observation deck. The Blackpool Tower (still standing) and the New Brighton Tower (demolished) resembled smaller versions of the Eiffel Tower, while Watkin's Tower at Wembley, if completed, would have been taller than the Eiffel Tower. The i360 in Brighton is a 162-metre (531 ft) observation tower and the world’s first vertical cable car. Enger Tower, Reunion Tower, Seattle's Space Needle, Gatlinburg, Tennessee's Space Needle and the Tower of the Americas are some examples of observation towers in the United States.
