We once reported to you that a brand new 220 foot Observation Wheel was coming to Atlantic City.  Two years later, what happened to it?

 

It was supposed to be Steel Pier's largest attraction.  It was going to be the second largest Ferris Wheel in the country (Las Vegas recently build the largest).

 

Well, it's coming.  And not only will it be one Atlantic City's coolest attractions, it will operate year-round.

 

According to The Press of Atlantic City, 'The 220-foot observation wheel has 40 climate-controlled gondolas that can provide heat in mid-winter and air conditioning during a summer heat wave.'

 

The Observation wheel is expected to built by Spring.  The 14 million dollar project should take three-four months to assemble.
