Louvre Pyramid

The Louvre Pyramid in Paris, France, was designed by Chinese-American architect I.M. Pei, who passed away yesterday at the age of 102. The structure, which consists exclusively of glass segments and metal poles, reaches a height of 71 feet (21.6 m) and has a square base with 112-foot-long (34 m) sides. While the pyramid is often recognized as Pei’s most famous design, his firm’s other works include the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio, and the Museum of Islamic Art in Doha, Qatar.
