Largest observation wheel in Rotterdam – Cobouw

The company Skyview Attractions in Rotterdam wants to build a Ferris wheel. The huge steel wheel must be the largest in the Netherlands. The council is, local residents are against it.

The Ferris wheel builder dropped in view of a location next to the Erasmus Bridge and makes it thereby not easy. Bewonersorganisatie Scheepvaartkwartier was already on edge by the announced construction of Dutch tallest residential tower, the Zalmhaven Tower (218 meters). A briefing earlier this month threatened to immediately get out of hand in hand. It took account of forty people, but there were more than 120 on down. “That meeting we have therefore had to postpone to September,” says director Perry Oerlemans Skyview Attractions. “We want our plans can explain in a decent manner.” He wants to close convince prior to the application.

According Oerlemans have neighbors little to fear from the steel colossus and it is certainly not a ‘fairground attraction’ . The wheel gets forty gondolas with table where visitors can dine. Insight from the ‘Dinner Wheel’ is not obvious, people will usually focus on their plate and are also constantly changing. “Their neighbor in the surrounding high-rise buildings, they have to fear.”

The municipality has indicated that it is prepared to issue a permit until 2021. Once construction starts Salmon Harbor Tower goes, it will be reconsidered. If the building permit has been issued Skyview expects to set up the monster within two weeks. Unlike the 135-meter high London Eye is to build the structure of standard components.

Skyview Attractions also currently building a 50 meter high Ferris wheel at the Scheveningen pier. The wheel in Rotterdam must be 10 meters higher. Oerlemans: “It is well known: Rotterdam like the greatest.”

The investment required in the Dinner Wheel approximately 6.5 million
