In keeping with tradition, this Paris has its own Eiffel Tower, too.

This Eiffel Tower, standing 65 feet tall, represents a remarkable community effort. It was constructed by the Boiler Makers Local #902 utilizing materials, plant space, and employee time donated by the Babcock & Wilcox Company.

The tower stands as the impetus for Paris being designated "1995 Best Pit Stop" by the Great North American Race.

It was "Texanized" with a cowboy hat in 1998.
