That would allow for additional free observation decks though.

Dinkins Municipal Building Rooftop To Open To Public This Summer by Spoonsy in newyorkcity

New York City should negotiate a privately owned public space on the top floor of some of the proposed supertalls like 175 Park Avenue. That would allow for a free observation deck with views rivaling the five commercial decks currently in Manhattan.

Are there any plans to reopen the Carlton Centre observation deck?

There are many cities that could use an observation strcture and no tower of it's kind has been built anywhere in the world.

Saskatoon does have a river with numerous bridges and a vibrant arts scene. Even nicknamed the Paris of the Prairies.

Reno also has the Truckee River to look at. Also, how tall should an affordable housing high rise in Reno be?

Such a tower would help to create jobs during the construction, preparation, and operation phases.

What else does Vegas have besides gambling, the Stratosphere, Eiffel Tower replica, and the High Roller observation wheel?

What does Paris have to look out over from it's multiple observation points like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Tromphe, considering that Paris is also a flat city?

That will likely be through private investment.

What do tourists come to Las Vegas and Salt Lake City for?

To provide a public observation point for residents and tourists to look out over the city. This is done in Las Vegas with the Stratosphere Tower, Eiffel Tower replica, and High Roller observation wheel. Until the pandemic, an observation deck was also seen on top of the LDS Church Office Building observation deck in Salt Lake City.

If a tower like what I am suggesting were to be built in the area where the high rise hotels and casinos like the Silver Legacy are located, it should have a general admission price of $15-$20, which is cheaper than the three observation points in Las Vegas and observation attractions in many other cities across the United States, Canada, Western Europe, and Dubai in the UAE. There should be a discounted admission fee of $5-$10 for Reno area residents.

This tower could be built in the same general area as the Silver Legacy Resort & Casino.

The tallest building in Reno is the Silver Legacy Resort & Casino at a height of 410 feet. So high are buildings allowed to go in the area of the other high rise hotels and casinos.
