    why was the Eiffel tower
    built?

    The Eiffel Tower was built for a variety of reasons. The main
    reason for its design and construction was for the World
    Exhibition (also known as the Paris Exposition of 1889)
    commemorating the 100 year anniversary of the French
    Revolution in Europe. The French Revolution was an important
    event in French history that attempted to eliminate
    dictatorships and divine right kings and to create a more
    democratic government. Many of the French officials and
    people wanted to remember the 100 year anniversary by
    improving the quality of Paris and France. Many proposed that
    the building of new and beautiful buildings would be a good
    way to commemorate the 100 year anniversary. All throughout
    France, many engineers and designers submitted designs and
    ideas for new ways to improve France. Of the many ideas,
    Gustave Eiffel's design of the Eiffel Tower caught some of the
    most attention.
    , Eiffel's tower was completed in a matter of months with a
    small labor force. The current height of the tower is 1069
    feet (320.75 meters), which is about the equivalent of a
    105-story building. It is still the tallest structure in Paris by
    a very wide margin. Its size is very deceiving since there
    are no other structures close to it. The levels accessible to
    the public are at heights of 189 feet (57.63 meters), or 19
    stories; 380 feet (115.73 meters), or 38 stories; and 896
    feet (273 meters), or 89 stories. The base of the tower
    covers a square area of 328 feet (100 meters) on a side.
    You can stand in the center of the area at the base and
    look directly up at the floor of the second level, 38 stories
    above.
