What's it like living in the shadow of the Riverview antenna farm? Did you know that four of those antennas are among the tallest structures in the world? They're almost 1600 feet high...taller than the Sears Tower in Chicago. It's kinda freaky coming out of the restaurant and looking up and seeing those things towering over you.

According to my sectional (aviation map) the tallest is 1,574ft AGL. The Sears Tower itself is 1,451ft tall to the top floor, 1,730ft to the top of it's tower.

Exactly...the height of skyscrapers is generally noted as the height of their highest occupied floor. In the antenna farm, there are actually four masts in the 1575-foot (480 meter) range.

The list below is taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...s_in_the_world and verified with the FCC ASR Website:

Viacom Tower Riverview 1,575 feet 480 m 1998 Guyed mast UHF/VHF-transmission U.S. Riverview, Florida 27°49′47.0″N, 82°15′58″W

Tampa Tower General Partnership Tower Riverview 1,573 feet 479.4 m 1987 Guyed mast UHF/VHF-transmission U.S. Riverview, Florida 27°50′33.0″N, 82°15′44″W

Riverview Florida West Coast Public Broadcasting Tower 1,572 feet 479.1 m 1999 Guyed mast UHF/VHF-transmission U.S. Riverview, Florida 27°50′51.5″N, 82°15′49.4″W

American Towers Tower Riverview 1,568 feet 478 m 2001 Guyed mast UHF/VHF-transmission U.S. Riverview, Florida 27°49′10.8″N, 82°15′38″W

Not the tallest, of course, but pretty freaking tall...I was actually surprised that they were that tall when I looked them up. The view from the top of one of those masts must be incredible...I'll bet you can see all the way to the Gulf on a clear day.
