The Eiffel Tower is France's most recognizable monument. Which of the following statements about it is NOT true?

There's nothing that screams "Paris" more than the Eiffel Tower. Some fun facts about the Tower include its secret apartment at the top, in which Gustave Eiffel once entertained his famous guests (Thomas Edison, for example). The Tower is repainted every seven years with 60 tons of paint, not all of a single shade, but of three shades so that it blends with the skyline. Eiffel also grows up to six inches taller during the summer, due to high temperatures expanding the metal base.
