Skylon Tower, Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada.

Tallest building in Niagara Falls. Mainly a restaurant and observation deck, offering spectacular view of the city and Niagara area and you might even see Buffalo and/or Toronto on a clear day!

Height: 158.5 m (antenna), Roof 145.4 m
Year Built: 1965

Looks beautiful, colourful, and bright @ night, but in the day time, nothing looks special about it. Looks kind of like the CN Tower's little brother. 7/10
I gotta give Skylon Tower high marks since it was built by Piggott Construction lol. That's my bias. Piggott had done a lot of beautiful work where I live, City Hall, Piggott building, etc.

It's a nice Tower, I especially like the lights they put around the tower.

8.5/10

That's always the impression I had. Cool, none-the-less, and the night lighting is pretty cool as well. Plus I like it for being there long before all the tacky hotels that are beginning to spoil the landscape.

Only minus is the last time i remember seeing it, it was beginning to look "worn out".

Still an 8/10.
Beautifull sleek classic Jetsons modern. The concrete work at the bottom of the pod is fabulous as it transitions into the shaft
CN's playmate.:happy:

It looks horrific in the picture with the draped Christmas lights, like that hasn't been done before.:|

7/10
8/10

It's nice, and fits the area well.
alright but nothing special

So 7.
looks alright, 6.5/10
