Talk:CN Tower
From Academic Kids
I changed "believed by some to be the world's tallest freestanding structure" to "is the world's tallest freestanding land structure". If Worlds tallest structures is to be believed, the CN Tower's status is only in question due to three factors:
- the existence of taller TV towers (which are not "free-standing")
- the existence of the Baldpate Tower (which is not a "land structure")
- the fact that it isn't a "building" as such (but it's still a "structure").
"is believed by some" strikes me as very wishy-washy. Are there any other serious claimants to the "world's tallest freestanding land structure"? - user:Montrealais
I would dispute that the Skypod is "tiny". I've been there with several other people, and I wasn't bothered by claustrophobia at all. But rather than just calling it tiny we should have the actual dimensions, if anyone cares to supply them. -- Lee M 01:48, 11 Aug 2003 (UTC)
I added back the semi-POV link and some text on the restaurant. On one hand its removal makes sense, but the info on the restarunt in a less POV version made sense. As for the link, there are a lot of POV links on the wiki and since its about a actual persons experience rather then a opinion I guess its not entirely pov. If anyone has links to actual review, such as on a culinary site, that would be a better choice. Greyengine5 19:12, 2004 Jul 23 (UTC)
I added a line on the enviornmentalists who scaled the tower in 2001 to protest Bush's policies. I don't remember what the exact date of their adventure was, but I do remember it was the day after I had visited the tower when taking a vacation in Canada.

I think it's more than a bit of a stretch to suggest that CN was a failure for broadcasting; the only other facility in Toronto, First Canadian Place, is markedly inferior in every respect except rent; there would not be any broadcasters on First Canadian were it not for the fact that CN is absolutely, chock full. (Speaking as someone who has seen the broadcast facilities at CN, about the only tighter squeeze is Empire post-9/11.) 18.26.0.18 04:50, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Ostankino Tower, Moscow is since 2003 taller!
The CN Tower belongs to the dead. (http://finalfantasyeternal.com/) Matthew McVickar 14:49, May 18, 2005 (UTC)
