Many people are not aware that there is a elevator inside of this structure that
you can ride to the top. See previous image. https://pbase.com/jwcoffman/image/169594374
It is a scary ride due to the fact the elevator has to adjust its position as it goes up.
This image shows a view I had from the top. Believe me, you don't want to be up there on a windy day.The arch is made to sway in the wind.

Awesome capture. I wondered how the elevator worked. I think that "adjustment" would scare me more than the swaying.

Quite the view!

I had no idea you could even go up in it. This photo was worth the scary ride.

a sway to the arch could add a special flavour to the experience...at least there is one venerable building on offer in the view..
Raymond06-Aug-2019 16:07
But wow, what a beautiful shot you got as a reward, sure was worth the ride.

This is news to me... no idea there is an elevator in the arch. Not sure i'd be taking it to the top, but love the view you got from doing so. V

Great capture from this very high vantage point. I think I'd pass on the elevator ride!
