Fun Fact: The Eye was actually built solely for the celebration of the new millennium in 2000 and was meant to come down after the new year. Many complained that it was an eyesore in the middle of such a historic part of London. However, it brought in so much tourism and therefore money, that it ended up staying as a permanent fixture. People now complain of the older buildings blocking their view of it.
