As it stood in 1969
What Ostankino Tower looked like in its prime.
A soaring, tapering reinforced-concrete shaft rising from a flared, cone-like base; several broad circular service rings and glazed cylinders interrupt the shaft at mid and upper levels, with a three-storey revolving restaurant and a glazed observation ring about one third up. Above these, a narrower cylindrical spire carries stacked antenna sections and thin mast pinnacles. Surrounded by trees and a reflecting embankment, the surface reads as warm-brown concrete and metallic platform bands under a clear sky.
