The Auckland Sky Tower is the tallest man-made structure in New Zealand. Located in the Central Business District, the Tower reaches more than 1000 feet into the air and has become iconic of Auckland. The Tower offers magnificent views of the city, and many people climb to the top and dine at one of the restaurants. At night, the Tower changes colors for Auckland holidays and events.

"I called it the North Star because you could see it from most anywhere. My friends and I liked to see what color it was each week." -Inga Shalmiyeva, Skidmore College
