i360 Tower is Brighton’s Answer to the London Eye 👀 How Did They Build That? | Smithsonian Channel

[@FernandoTRA]

Sorry but a real rising from the ashes like a Phoenix would have been the rebuilding the pier as it was originally done. The other although an engineering masterpiece is really an eyesore. Just like the London Eye and all the mega wheels that are around the world.

Fernando TRA.. If your eyes are sore from looking at these attractions.. There is only one thing that you can do.. Close your eyes and keep them close and you won't see them anymore.😐🤗👍👍

Why not rebuild the pier-with replica buildings? For myself, I would rather stroll along that in the sea air, dine out, shop, and just sit and enjoy the view.

[@singlecell2498]

Because the funding for the project to restore it was withdrawn after the fire also its grade 1 listed so j cant just pull it down

I got a chance to visit Brighton in 1989 and I walked on that pier. It was a Sunday and everything was closed. Iconic history!

[@abdullahabdulkhaliq5240]

It has such a beautiful view I’ve only been on it once

Brighton's answer to the London eye would have to take the form of a doughnut sliding up and down a pole though wouldn't it?! I am an actual Brightonian who was born there at Brighton general by the way so I am allowed to take the piddle. ;-)

Nice

[@sunstarburst]

One goes around and around. And goes up comes down... Well all I can say is all points in your basic direction are covered.😐👍👍

[@bostonblackie9503]

I was under the impresion the pier fell down because of neglect!

[@SeanBZA]

Neglect yes, but the arson was the final thing.

[@Tampo-tiger]

It was struck by Jewish lightning.
