The four Pylons at night.

The Bartle Hall Pylons rest atop the Bartle Hall Convention Center in Kansas City, Missouri, USA. Without a doubt, they are the most unusual part of the Kansas City skyline. Constructed in 1994, they are made of aluminum and steel. Each Pylon, or "Sky Stations" as they are also called, are 24-feet by 15-feet in diameter, and 200-feet in height. They were molded after the 1930s Art Deco theme throughout the city, by R.M. Fischer, and were placed atop each pillar via helicopter.
