Spend money on something else. It was easy to find. Windows appeared dirty. Admission cost should be half of what was charged to get even a slight recommendation. Have been in other lookout towers in big cities with view more interesting. Can see the beauty of Vancouver on bridges and beachfront.

Amazing views of Vancouver ! The elevator was surprisingly a panoramic one so it was a scary climb ! But worthy !
