Interesting design, should be taller. Plus, a little boring. 6.5

I'm sorry, but of all of the tower structures I've seen this has to be one of the worst. It is such and eyesore, though I'm sure it's observation deck and restaurant are nice. I give it a 4. Sorry, it just looks so drab and concrete and out of proportion.

6/10

Its just too dull. It should overcome this by having some wacky lighting at night though.

I love this tower...

10/10

You've got to remember....this was the 60's when it was built. Everything was boring back then. It's great and tall for it's time. I give it an 8 outta 10. I got to look at this all the time when I was littler, SA is my hometown baby!

I dont really care for these types of towers-the reunion tower in dallas is unique as well as the spaceneedle, but it seems most other towers Ive seen look exactly the same!5

I don't like it.
5

It doesn't look as bad at night... but it still kinda sucks 6.0/10

The top looks ok,but the rest is just straight up boring.

I usually find observation towers a bit boring, this is not too bad, but looks like in a park, should be, IMHO, in the city centre

5.5/10 the way the tower is standing makes it look stiff, dull, boring....

This is one of the worst tower i ever see ... 3/10

make it taller man... and make it more interesting than a tuna can on a stick. the night pics made up for it though...

It is in a park, in the Downtown Area...

It was built by the World's Fair...

I don't see anything particularly special about it, though I agree that some creative lighting would do wonders for this structure. A 5.

Nice for it's era, 8.5.

Nothing special, 5.5/10.

8/10- not very tall, but i like the architecture.

this is high but not attracted my attention specially in the slides (im sure that is more impressive if one person see it near to the structure)
