The CN Tower was the world's tallest free-standing structure and had the world's hightest public observatory until 2010 when Dubai's Burj Khalifa officially took on the title.

The tower was constructed by Canadian National Railroad to improve television reception.
There was a Pepsi logo on the north side of the white ring in 2002.
