Its a superbly aerodynamic structure that revolves so it always faces into the wind.

Truely an innovative piece of engineering.

And at 436 ft, quite a sizable structure no matter where in Britain you are. Looks great at Night too.

Boooo....

It may not be the most exciting tower in the world, but its a damn sight more interesting than the BT Tower in Brum and the Radio City Tower in Liverpool.

You are right though - it could be bigger and flasher. It does look better in person, though.

It may be an engineering feat, a design masterpiece and dum de dum de dum but to me personally it has no real wow factor... looks to me like a space age step ladder
