At $10/month each this might not sound like a lot (and it really isn’t) but for me it was pretty cool because this was my original goal for myself way back when I first started the site , more than 2 years ago. In fact, (this is really silly but) during that entire time I’ve had this little stickie note on my computer desktop with that goal written down: When I started I thought it would take maybe 6 months tops to reach this.

At the top you can walk among the structure itself, admire its intricacies, and if the sky is clear, you have before you an amazing view of the city.  Many people don’t realize that you can go to the top and yes, there is an elevator.  Cost: 5€ stairs, 8€ elevator
