Las Vegas Eiffel Tower merge here

edit

Someone has suggested this merge. Kind of makes sense given that the article on the tower really says very little. If the tower retains its own article then would we need a new article for every design feature like the Statue of Liberty? Vegaswikian 21:04, 14 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

layout issues -- do we like the logo on the right?

edit

I thought this page looked much better with the logo on the left (e.g. [1]). However, the casino infobox template was changed so that for every casino, the logo now has to go in the infobox. See Template talk:Infobox casino#Changes. --Mathew5000 23:33, 15 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Height of the Las Vegas Tower

edit

According to the Harrah's website ([2]) the height is 460, not 540 feet.

And even 540 feet is not 5/8 (=0,625x) of original Eiffel Tower, because that's at least 300 m (984 feet) and that's ~0,55x (roughly 5/9). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.217.40.51 (talk) 03:47, 8 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

The observation deck is at 460 feet. Harrah's website implies that. The height of the tower is listed at 540 feet and observation deck at 460 according to LasVegas.com website ([3])

As for the scale 540 to 1063 is more like 1/2 scale 167.129.240.25 (talk) 23:48, 14 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Agreed - it's a half scale model. I'll change the article. There's a web page on the Paris Las Vegas web site that confirms this at http://www.parislasvegas.com/casinos/paris-las-vegas/casino-misc/eiffel-tower-detail.html . Given that the math proves the claim to be correct, the hotel/casino web site tends to change its pages fairly regularly, and there's already an external link to the main page of the hotel/casino site, I don't think it's useful to include this as a reference.
