Eiffel Tower & Empire State Go Dark for Las Vegas

The Eiffel Tower went dark on Monday night in tribute to the victims of the attacks in Las Vegas and Marseille. At least 59 people were killed and hundreds wounded on Sunday when a gunman opened fire at a concert in Las Vegas in the deadliest mass shooting in modern US history. On Sunday, a man knifed two young women to death outside the main train station in Marseille.
"Tonight we will turn off the Eiffel Tower from midnight in homage to the victims of the attacks in Marseille and Las Vegas," Paris mayor Anne Hidalgo wrote, adding the hashtag "we are united".

In New York, the Empire State Building also went dark in tribute to those who died in the Mandalay Bay hotel massacre. The landmark issued a statement saying it would go dark “in sympathy” for the victims of the Las Vegas tragedy. A halo on the tower was also lit orange to raise awareness of gun violence.
