PARIS — In effort to improve the city's chance of hosting the 2024 Olympics, the mayor of Paris wants to give the Eiffel Tower a makeover.
The upgrades would take 15 years to complete and include new elevators, better security and refurbished lighting.
The proposal comes as Paris competes with Budapest and Los Angeles in a bid for the 2024 Olympic Games.
The International Olympic Committee will make a decision in September.
Six million people visit the Eiffel Tower every year.
