The Glass Elevator That Will Take You 73-Stories With Breathtaking Panoramic Views of Georgia

Chicago has the Skydeck, New York has the Top of the Rock Observation Deck, and Willy Wonka had an impressive off-the-rails glass adventure-mobile. So what exactly does Georgia have? Only a glass elevator that will skyrocket guests 73-stories above Atlanta with insane panoramic views. Only that…

The glass elevator at the Westin in Downtown Atlanta is a spectacular way to see the city from an impressive and breathtaking vantage point.

The elevator, which take guests up to the Sun Dial restaurant, skyrockets 73 stories in only 85 seconds…if we’re being exact…

The views that you’ll be privy to from high above the rest of the skyline is nothing short of magical.

Choose from one of two scenic glass elevators and be lifted from the ground over 700-feet to the observatory View Level.

It is here that you’ll be able to see every aspect of Atlanta, completely illuminated in the most enchanting way.

With four complimentary telescopes, catch a glimpse of stadiums, landmarks, Centennial Olympic Park, and even Stone Mountain in the distance.

Take the whole family and shoot up into the sky for a perfect chance to fall in love with our capital city.

Thanks to YouTuber Klazu, you can see firsthand what it looks like to take the glass elevator high into the sky:
