[edit]The design of Näsinneula was inspired by the Space Needle in Seattle. To me, Näsinneula doesn't look like Space Needle. I thought just the name was inspired Space Needle. (Because needle is 'neula' in finnish.) 85.217.38.115 (talk) 03:25, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, actually that's what the finnish page says. Combination of Näsijärvi (Lake Näsi) and neula (needle). 85.217.38.115 (talk) 03:27, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
I agree that it doesn't look like Space Needle. But it looks exactly like Tower of the Americas in San Antonio, TX. The latter was built 2 years earlier and also contains a revolving restaurant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kj55552009 (talk • contribs) 03:23, 25 November 2012 (UTC)
Keirf: The coordinates given appear to point to some place in Ylijärvi. I think the correct coordinates are 61 30 16 N 23 44 34 E.
