On the TV news coverage of the i360 ground-breaking ceremony it was interesting to see the artist’s impression of the viewing pod which showed, at most 20 customers.

Surely it should have shown ten times that amount to be the 200 the developers have claimed. Also, are there any toilets? Imagine 200 people standing in an area less than half the centre circle of a football pitch.

There is one technical question that concerns all high building with a high aspect ratio such as skyscrapers, that is how much lateral movement will the pod have in high winds.
