On my way to the station a couple of days ago I spied a Big Wheel under construction in the Station Hotel car park. York had a Wheel from 2006-2008 attracting 1.2million visitors, and there has been much debate about where to site this one. This wheel was previously in Dublin and it took 24 lorries to bring it to York. It is scheduled to remain here until Jan 2013.
It seems to be the thing now - to have a ferris wheel. Not sure why.
ReplyDeleteLooks good, but a way to go before I would take my chances on it ;-)
ReplyDeleteOh wow! Should be able to get some marvelous overviews of York from that!
ReplyDeleteYes indeed Karen, planning a trip on the wheel already. Tempted to wait until the warmer weather arrives though!
