Ah yes. I remember that. Tesla was going to use the tower to test and demonstrate his idea of wireless electricity. The Tesla Coil is an offspring of this idea. It's only used these days to simulate lightning strikes on things like aircraft fly by wire systems or in high voltage "tricks" on stage shows.
IIN I idolize Nikola Tesla
