The ceramic tower? It was unveiled a month ago when they finished the burning. I was at the unveiling and have been by it many times and it's been in plain sight.

Maybe they covered it for the Christmas parade or something...didn't venture that far down Academy on Saturday.

It looks kind of upscale South of the Borderish.

I know French. Here is my translation without checking Google translate:

"Good new ones. Probably signifies that the price went augmented."

And here is what Google Translate says:

Good news! Probably means that the price will go up!

Is it as big as the one in Fayetteville at Bordeaux Shopping Center? That one has been there as long as I can remember.

Well, we still don't have a Wegman's but now North Raleigh has this 25' replica of the Eiffel Tower!

From this Morning: North Raleigh or Paris?

I agree, the photo enhances the towers size greatly.... I was disappointed when I saw the tower at LV. If it did not have Christmas lights on it, it would be easily missed when passing by on FON.

Yeah, it's just a 25' replica. FWIW, I took the pic above from my parked car using instagram on my ipad.
