Stratosphere Tower
2000 South Las Vegas Boulevard, Las Vegas, NV
(800) 99-TOWER
Click here to view website
View the city in 360-degree panorama at the Stratosphere Tower. The tallest freestanding observation tower in the United States, the 1,149-foot tower consists of an outdoor deck at the 869-foot level and an indoor deck at the 857foot level. Termed a "pod," the indoor deck rests on three legs. Because of this, the glass angles outward; those afraid of heights are better off on the outdoor deck. A bank of elevators beams guests up to the pod at a dizzying 1,800 feet a minute. Total time from ground level to pod: 30 seconds. But spectators get the best view of Vegas. The indoor deck is the loading area for the Big Shot; however, the outdoor deck is the best if you want to snap some picture or watch the riders.
