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, Miró 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.
