187-ft. tower with 2 observation decks offering panoramic vistas of Lake Erie & the city.
Erie County homeowners invest in fencing for privacy, security, and property value. Wind off Lake Erie and heavy snow loads require sturdy fence construction, particularly in Lakeside, Bayfront, and Presque Isle areas. Wood fences need regular maintenance due to Erie's moisture, while vinyl and aluminum options are popular in Millcreek and Fairview.

Beautiful view of the city and the bay, especially in the winter as you can see all the people ice fishing and walking on the ice. The glassed part of the deck is nice because even if the weather was too cold to go outdoors or you're really afraid of heights you still have a great view of everything without going outside. As a resident I have rarely gone up the bicentennial tower but after doing so I highly recommend it! It was only $6 for an adult and kids are $2 . They have free days as well, check the website for details.

We came here on a Sunday afternoon in September. We bought tickets onsite and there was no wait. The cost was $6/person. A staff member took us to the observation deck in an elevator. Not sure if there are steps to walk up if you choose to or not - it didn’t seem like that was an option. The view from the observation deck was great. Looking at the website and seeing some other reviews, it’s unclear to me if there is a second observation area. If there is, no one told us about it so we missed it. I don’t remember seeing any elevator options to go up any higher. Parking was easy. There was a shared lot and there were plenty of spaces. It was a very nice day, I was surprised there weren’t more people here. We enjoyed this visit.

Beautiful views!!! Definitely worth the small fee. We noticed it when we were at the maritime museum but had run out of time so we went the next day. Good for all ages. Loved the elevator after the stairs at the land lighthouse!

A beautiful tower on the end of a pier with a small restaurant and gift shop at the bottom. It is in a nice location with many things to do nearby and multiple boat tours are available on the pier as well. The views are the main reason to go up to the tower and they were great, could see over as far as you could see on lake Erie and the entire bayfront. They do have an elevator so you don't have to walk up all those stairs lol. I would recommend stopping by here if you are in the Erie area.
