If Philly Gets It’s Own Space Needle, I’m Heading Home!*

Finally, I can move back to Philadelphia!

PHL Local Gaming — one of the five contenders for that ever elusive casino license in Philadelphia — has announced a potential new feature for its LoSo Entertainment Center: a 615-foot-tall Skyspire with rooftop restaurant and observation deck, both of which would be reached by gondola. The tower would be designed to look much like Seattle’s Space Needle, though it would be 10 feet taller (take that, Seattle!).

Except for the casino part, it sounds great.* Though personally, rather than the Skyspire, I would opt for the Polercoaster, which instead of those stupid gondolas would wrap the tower with a 615-foot vertical roller coaster!

* Note: Not really.

    There’s no indication that this ersatz restaurant rotates. If the seating don’t rotate it ain’t no “space needle”.

    I suggest we start with the Springfield Revolving Restaurant. You know, food tastes better when you’re revolving.
