Your intro says the Space Needle "is over 600 meters tall and the top floor of the construction is located about 520 meters high." Those figures are in feet, not meters. The Space Needle is 605 ft (184 m) tall, and the observation deck is at 520 ft (160 m).
thank you because I'm doing a project on Space Needle.
