A giant Ferris wheel is always the favorite of business property developers. Imagine erecting a huge Ferris wheel in the business building complex and think about the sheer volume of visitors it can bring.
GLC-83A is the perfect solution for a business setting. Designed at a proper height of 82 meters, it stands tall enough to be regarded as a landmark, yet not too tall to disproportion the surrounding structures.
Steel cables are utilized to suspend the drive rim onto the spindle, giving it a clean minimalistic outlook. The wheel comes with 36 cabins, decorated to cater to a luxury taste.
When lights are on at nighttime, the wheel's exterior lighting is just a splendid addition to the urban landscapes.
