In the aftermath of the terrorist attacks in Paris, the Flatiron Building in New York has created a quietly beautiful tribute to the City of Light.

On Wednesday night, the Broadway side of the building was lit up with a projection of the Eiffel Tower, which was emblazoned with Paris' motto, "She is tossed by waves but does not sink."
