Seattle Great Wheel

The Seattle Great Wheel is a 175 feet tall ferris wheel located at Pier 57 on Elliot Bay in Seattle that opened on June 29, 2012. The wheel has 42 climate controlled gondolas each able to carry up to 8 passengers, except for the “VIP” gondola which only seats 4, giving it a maximum capacity of over 300.

 

I took this photo around St. Patricks day last year, it is hard to see on the wheel lights, but the reflections shows more closely that the design was meant to be a three leaf clover or Shamrock.
