END RESULT
The end was a towerlike frame that held two
suspended boxes hanging on slim wooden
tension members. A narrow walkway takes
you out over the edge of the hill, and to the
tower.
In moving through the tower, you would
first enter a room with a very controlled
view towards the river — the instrument
for looking to the west. You go through a
hatch in the roof, onto the platform between
two worlds, and then finally arrive at the
observatory for looking at things above the
treetops.
