This observatory offers fantastic views of the city.

There are multiple binoculars to view the city, and ladders on the east and western faces to descend to setbacks slightly below the observatory. The absence of railings on the observatory makes it a hot-spot for suicide jumpers; one [[Higgins Helitours|helitour pilot]] mentions that his brother attempted to BASE jump from the 82nd floor, but was stopped by security guards who "were tubby, but they sure could move!" These security guards seem to be absent from the observatory, however. | ||
In [[Ballad of Gay Tony|The Ballad Of Gay Tony]], multiple changes have been made to the observatory. There are numerous signs directing the locations of exits. There is a large neon sign, facing north which displays "Rotterdam Tower: Top of the World", which is easily viewable from [[Star Junction]]. The addition of a stairwell on the south-western corner of the observatory allows for players to climb up to the base of the Rotterdam Tower's spire. The stairwell has been complemented by the removal of the four satellite dishes and water towers around the spire's base. Finally, the addition of two ladders on the spire allow players to climb up to the top of the 102nd floor interior observation deck, and the top of the antenna respectively, allowing for the highest [[Base Jumps|Base Jump]] from a building in game. A [[Parachute|parachute]] is located on the top of the first ladder. There has also been the removal of the two ladders on the eastern and western faces of the building, which in [[Grand Theft Auto IV|GTA IV]] allowed players to descend to the immediate setback below. | In [[Ballad of Gay Tony|The Ballad Of Gay Tony]], multiple changes have been made to the observatory.
