The tower offers spectacular views of the Dallas skyline and surrounding areas, even as far as Fort Worth on most days. Night views are equally spectacular. A rotating restaurant and an observation deck make Reunion Tower a good place to take a date or the whole family.
Note: Reunion Tower underwent a $23 million renovation and reopened in the spring of 2009 with 560, Wolfgang Puck's new restaurant at the top. The observation deck is not yet open.
The base of Reunion Tower is made of four cylinders of concrete poured in place--three on the outside with glass-faced elevators for a view on the way up and one on the inside with stairs and mechanical shafts.
The globe is also made of concrete poured in place. The three levels contain a restaurant on top, a special events venue on the middle level, and an observation deck with a food kiosk on the lower level. A geodesic dome made up of aluminum struts surrounds the globe. Lights are at each intersection of the struts.
