Infobox building name Tower Without Ends native name Tour Sans Fins native name lang fr image caption location Courbevoie Paris , France coordinates status Cancelled roof convert 425.6 m ft 0 abbr on building type Office floor count 100 architect Jean Nouvel The Tour Sans Fins Tower Without Ends was a tower planned in La D fense that has since been cancelled. The spelling Tour Sans Fins may, to a native French speaker, sound like a grammatical mistake as it would normally be written Tour Sans Fin without the s at the end of fins . However, the idea was that this tower had no ends, even if one looked up or down at it, hence ends and not end . History The history of the Tour Sans Fins is linked to the early projects for La D fense. The Grande Arche was built in an area that was not yet developed. As a testimony to the lack of completed construction in La D fense, the winning design was selected next to an outdoor parking lot of the R.E.R. The winner of this contest was Jean Nouvel , and his Tour Sans Fins was meant to be 425m tall and would have been the tallest skyscraper in Europe. Technical reasons in addition to the Early 1990s recession economic crisis of the early 1990s resulted in the project being cancelled despite 20 million French francs being already spent. The Proposed Tower The tower was meant to have a very original design. Having the shape of a cylinder, the base of the tower was to be very dark, becoming more clear as it approached the sky, thus giving the sensation of the tower disappearing. At its base the tower would have gone several levels down below the earth, like a crater, and would have ended with a tuned mass damper absorbing vibrations on its top. Elevators were to be located on the sides, allowing for panoramic views during ascent, and allowing the offices to occupy the centre. To achieve the impression of the tower just disappearing into the sky ... fins ... more details
