What precisely do you mean by "put this tower back in the proper
orientation"? Do you actually want to modify the tower. If so, what
kinds of modification are permitted, and whjch are prohibited?
Alternatively, are you trying to find a point of view that makes it
look "similar" in some sense to the way it would look if it didn't
list? If so, in what way should the appearance be "similar"?
