https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tour_Montparnasse

Mny Parisians were appalled by plans to add an extra 23 metres to the Tour Montparnasse, the unloved 59-storey slab that looms over the low-rise Left Bank. Campaigners have now scored something of a victory by lopping eight metres off a grand renovation that will cap the tower with a new greenhouse layer full of trees.

Defenders of the Montparnasse district, an artistic quarter that was home to Picasso, Modigliani, MirĂ³ and Sartre, have been fighting for three years to prevent the makeover of the grey monolith that in the 1960s was expected to blaze a trail for modernist architecture in Paris. The 210-metre block so shocked the city after its opening in 1973 that the council banned anything above seven floors from being built.
