SkyDeck Sails Away From San Francisco
SAN FRANCISCO — The SkyDeck and its 360-degree view of this city from atop the One Embarcadero Center office building is closed, just three years after its grand opening on the 41st floor.
Owners Boston Properties last week shut down the SkyDeck, citing its failure to pay off financially, and put the space up for rent. SkyDeck, which also offered computer kiosks on San Francisco history, never really caught on in a city with plenty of places for scenic viewing, ranging from Twin Peaks to Coit Tower. There also was the $6.50 tab, up from $4 when the SkyDeck opened in 1996.
