Easy to get to, and relatively cheap - total charge was $7.75 for two adults and three children. You can spend as much time as you like on the tower - you pay for the (extremely slow ) elevator ride. Afterwards, we took a ride through a nice neighborhood across the street - Grand View Driver - overlooking the Illinois River. Beatufiul homes and a nice view of the river.
I Went there today wow. First off all views are amazing. Facts around the decks like Princeton is 53 Mi away. If you are scared on the first deck go to the top. Its sounds crazy but since the sun shines and, it is open on the top you don't feel as claustrophobic. The the crazy thing and do NOT READ THIS IF YOU ARE AFRAID OF HEIGHTS, the decks ...
This place was the best it was amazing and fun. I just took my breath away, it was like I was in dreamland. This is experience was fun. I would recommend that others should participate. It was absoultely worth your money and time.

Tower...great sights
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/30/05
The tower has very nice view of Peoria and the Illinois river valley. Seems like you can see for ever. There are three decks but I recommend going to the top deck to get the full experience. Bring some change for the telescopes. 25 cents for unlimited views.

The best views in the Peoria area. Miles of the Illinois River valley with breathtaking views in the fall.
