Eiffel Tower Getting Huge Observation Deck Made of Kevlar Webbing [Architecture]

Mar. 19, 2008 (Gizmodo delivered by Newstex) -- Next year marks the 120th anniversary of the Eiffel Tower. To celebrate, the French will be adding a gigantic webbed Kevlar observation deck to the top, doubling the size of the deck and making the Eiffel Tower look like some sort of alien space needle.The addition isn't permanent -- don't worry, purists -- but will be simply bolted in place and easily removed later. It's pretty amazing looking, a really interesting way of blending the past with the future. I like it. What say you? [Dwell via io9] Newstex ID: GAWK-0002-23895085
