When Eiffel Tower opened in 1889 to universal wonder & acclaim,Gustave Eiffel soaked up praise,but if that wasn't enough,soon revealed he had built himself small apartment near top of the world wonder garnering him envy of Parisian elite in addition to his new fame.Today,after being off limits for years,the apartment is on display for visitors to come & peer into.Much of the furnishings remain the same & there are a couple of rather wan looking mannequins of Eiffel and Edison.
