New York to Build the World’s Largest Ferris Wheel

via The Gadgeteer by Julie on 10/2/12

According to website Expensive Places, the world’s largest ferris wheel will soon be constructed on Staten Island, New York. It will stand 60 stories (630ft) tall and have 36 capsules that can accommodate 40 passengers each. That means a total of 1440 people can ride on this ferris wheel at one time. Due to be completed by the end of 2015, this attraction will rival the London Eye ferris wheel which is the largest in Europe at 443ft tall. There’s no info on how much this attraction will cost per ride. Looks scary – but fun.
