That's the EDF tower, not Elf !:lol:

Sorry for the mistyping. I indeed meant the EDF tower and not the Elf tower. ;)

EDIT : ARGH !!! It can't be corrected ! :bleep:
How can I contact a mod so that he could edit it ?

Nice tower. 9.5/10. I really like it. It looks so good, especially against the more run down buildings of LD.

Sleek, smooth and futuristic. I love the 'cut away' portion on the side - very classy.

One of the best towers in Paris, without a doubt.

I like it, but not the best I've seen. I don't know what could make it better, a more interesting shape maybe. Not that this shape isn't interesting, it is, but it just doesn't have ... I don't know... Hard to explain really

Il looks OK, the design is trendy and stuff, but it's not impressive enough. Not a real skyscraper to me. It should be 100m higher at least (like everything in France).

7/10 for the design. Would deserve an 8.5/10 if significantly higher.

It would be much better if the tower was taller (220-230m) than now (165m).
But the design is very nice.
