Gustav Eiffel had an apartment and laboratory in the Eifel Tower which he said only he and a few select guests could visit. None of these guests were monster hunters, private investigators in tweed, steampunk inventors, or suspected criminals on the run. That would be too exciting. Nor was it occupied during the pulp era or the war, because you could get a session's worth of adventure out of the setting. And its absolutely certain that nobody was tossed out of it, leaped through a window from the ladder of a nearby airship amidst swirling greatcloaks and smashing glass, or used it as a base while they set up their mad device using the tower as a giant antenna.
