What do you think about the Montparnasse tower? It was erected 50 years ago, but discussions around it are still ongoing. It is the first and only skyscraper in the center of Paris; designing other skyscrapers was prohibited after its construction. Montparnasse tower symbolized France's technological and aesthetic changes and the ideal that French society aspired to.
