Shit, that would be cool, though.
Obviously, the problem is only billionaires could purchase penthouses in there, then some jealous grumpy people go like - BWAAAAH, IT'S MEANT FOR THE ULTRA RICH! Blah blah blah.

Those towers are just necessary so we can break through what they call a "plafond de verre" (glass ceiling) over here.

Then you children will be jealous, 'cause this is Paris... Sorry.
Nah, I'm kidding you guys. We don't intend to make anybody badly jealous or enraged. We have no interest in doing nasty things like that.
