I came across this video and was intrigued by it. Great view from all around,yet some say they wouldn't want to. Hmm,I wonder why? |

| Wow gorgeous view.
I would do it, but only if harnesses off to the safety cable.
As a structural engineer I certainly could not vouch for the integrity (or lack there of) regarding the elevated walk way.

| Well considering it was built in 1901 and is still (primarily) up, it is doing pretty good. Yet how soon before there are some bigger holes in the walkway.

| With those holes in the walkway, there is no way I'd go up there. I'm waiting until they install the escalator! _________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |
