| The Skylon Tower, is an observation tower that overlooks both the American Falls, New York and the larger Horseshoe Falls, Ontario from the Canadian side of the Niagara River. Standing at 160 metres (520 ft) from street level and 236 metres (775 ft) from the bottom of the falls, the tower features three outside mounted "Yellow Bug" elevators. At the time of their construction they were the first such elevators in Canada. The tower has two restaurants at its top, the lower Revolving Dining Room and the upper Summit Suite Buffet. The Revolving Dining Room seats 276 people and revolves once every hour. An observation deck sits at the tower's summit. The base of the tower features a number of gift shops, fast food restaurants and a large amusement arcade. |
