I have seen many “city towers” in my day (Toronto, Montreal, Kyoto, etc.) and of the non-Eiffel Tower variety (i.e., not Paris and Tokyo) I must say I am most impressed with the Space Needle. Even though it is over 40 years old, it doesn’t look nearly as old as other, younger ones. It lacks the paneling and excessive use of cement that give other towers a tacky look.
