CN Tower - World's tallest free-standing structure

Mention Toronto to me and I immediately think of the CN Tower.

I can imagine again speeding up the outside of the tower in the elevators, and visualising those wonderful views from the obvservation deck.
It is 1,815 ft.5in. tall. It has four glass-faced elevators and the ride to the top is in 58 seconds. There is a spectacular panoramic view of the city, Lake Ontario and the Toronto slands. You can also see the SkyDome, featuring the world's largest retractable roof. See Skydome travelogue.

Space Deck
At 1,465 ft. is the World's highest public observation deck. A special elevator on the Indoor Observation Deck transports passengers another 329 ft. to the Space Deck. Glass windows bank inwards and completely enclose the viewing balcony providing a view of the city and Lake Ontario.

Top of Toronto
At 1,150 ft. Dine in the world's highest and largest revolving restaurant. Top of Toronto provides a tour of Toronto in 72 minutes (one revolution).

Sparkels Nightclub

At 1,136 ft. Toronto's "highest" nightclub.
Free admission to Sparkles after dining in Top of Toronto.
