The Tallest Structure in North America

The Tallest Structure in North America, ND

Carlson Branch Library, Fargo, ND

 

 

 

 

    The KVYL-TV transmitter tower near Blanchard, North Dakota. It's approximately in the center of the photo to the left of a tree which is small than those to its right.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

    Zooming in on the TV Tower from a distance of about 2 miles to the north-west on 24 Jun 2014.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

    From a distance of about a mile the 2,064-foot tower's top may be obscured by low clouds.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

    A somewhat closer shot reveals a white, concrete block building near the base of the tower, which is the tallest in both North & South America.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

    This final shot of North America's tallest structure doesn't reveal the top since I couldn't see it in the low clouds through my camera's viewfinder.
    However, the bottom link below includes a photo of the tower and its guy-wires.
