Samitaur Tower, Modern observation tower in Culver City, Los Angeles, United States
This tower rises 72 feet (22 meters) and consists of five circular steel rings with 30-foot (9-meter) diameters, arranged in stacks spaced 12 feet (3.7 meters) apart near the Expo light rail line.
Built between 2008 and 2010, this construction emerged through an urban development project by Samitaur Constructs aimed at transforming the surrounding industrial district.
This structure serves as a platform for digital art projections and event announcements, with screens mounted between offset steel planes that address both pedestrians and motorists moving through the area.
An open-air concrete seating area at the base houses electronic equipment, while a glazed elevator and stairway provide access to the viewing platform above.
The five steel rings incorporate extruded acrylic projection screens designed to reach an estimated daily audience of 30,000 people passing through the vicinity.
