It's hideous and it needs to go, not only that but it's one of the reasons for our piss-weak height restrictions.

It is an icon of Sydney but it pales in comparison with other obs towers of the world. IMO even Aucklands tower is much better designed with better lighting effects.

\It is very ELEGANT actually. no bland boring concrete shaft for this one. nice twisted wires around steel shaft.
it has the smallest spire in the world for a communication tower (only 30m)
in reality if it was like others it would be 350m+ if spire was 50-70m tall.
we are all very proud of our tower.

A Skywalk toruist attraction was added 2 years ago at 260m above street. It bhas glass bottome balcony which juts out 5ft.
