Wentworth stairs are 500 each way :s Nuts!!!
Of course going DOWN them is no work at all... except once you've reached the top, your legs feel like Jell-O anyway! hahaha

And totally... Olympia, IMO, is the nicest skyscraper in our city (at least in the top 5 tallest) sorry 100 Main... ur just too '70s

How do you guys get into these places anyway? Just sneak in on weekends and nights? Don't they lock em up with security and all that?

You just go. Yah, sometimes they do lock em up. Sometimes there is security. There's also a chance you'll get caught, but really its up to your curiosity to keep you going. Just don't get overcome by nerves and act like you belong there. At the same time though, don't be a fool either.

People have got to get out and explore their world a bit more, theres more to life than the generic attractions that we are allowed to see. Can you see a view like the one in these pictures in too many other places? Not really.
