Star Tower, Landmark tower in College Hill, Cincinnati, US.
The Star Tower reaches a height of 290.8 meters with a three-legged lattice design, making it the second tallest among Cincinnati's towers exceeding 900 feet.
Completed in October 1991, the Star Tower emerged after Hoker Broadcasting Company purchased land in College Hill, leading to a settlement with local residents regarding land development.
The Star Tower functions as a central broadcasting point for multiple television and FM radio stations, extending WSTR-TV's signal coverage by 5,000 square miles.
Located at coordinates 39°12′01″N and 84°31′22″W, the tower transmits signals for WSTR-TV channel 64 and several FM stations including WREW, WGRR, and WYGY.
The tower's construction involved helicopter assistance for precise positioning of sections, allowing workers to align and bolt components while suspended at extreme heights.
