I am trying to find out the circumference, height, etc of the Hemisfair tower.
Also, what hours it operated during the fair.

I have an original 1968 hemisfair guidebook with a cutout version of the tower that was never cut out.

I will take a look at it when I get home and let you know if the dimensions are given.

I can't help but ask - why would you want to know the diameter or circumference?

I was challenged to calculate the approximate distance a window side table would travel in a given amount of time. Since I know the time of one revolution, I need the distance it travels in that time. Noting terroristic, just trying to win a challenge.
