What is the name for the tall concrete tower in the southwest of Paris?
I don't have a picture of it, but there is a very tall round cylindrical building that looks like a giant vent because it doesn't have any windows except for some openings at the top. But it's not in the list of the tallest buildings and it's nowhere to be found. it's very tall and visible in the background of the Eiffel tower when looking from the center area. Can someone please let me know what this is? Thanks. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_buildings_and_structures_in_the_Paris_region
