Radio City Tower

Radio City Tower is the second tallest building in Liverpool (or the first if you consider the 10-meter antenna). Its height is 138 meters, so the tower attracts a huge number of tourists not only as a historic building, but also as a unique observation deck overlooking the whole of Liverpool and the sea. You can visit the tower every day, it is not difficult.

It is now a radio television tower owned by Radio City 96.7 FM, with a large inscription on its side. The building was built in 1969 with the unromantic purpose of serving as a ventilation shaft. However, it was never used for its intended purpose. The tower was opened by Queen Elizabeth II.

Until 1999, the tower was called the Lighthouse of St. John, its main attraction was a revolving restaurant, the facade and floor of which rotated together. The restaurant was closed in 1977. Before its rebirth as Radio City Tower, the tower was empty, and it was not until 1999 that it was completely renovated to accommodate radio equipment. The moving mechanism was left intact. The observation deck was converted into offices and conference rooms, but the tower still has a place to admire the big city from a bird's eye view.
