About World's Wonder View Tower

The World's Wonder View Tower is a historic roadside attraction in Genoa, on Colorado's Eastern Plains. It was built in the mid-1920s by C.W. Gregory and his partner Myrtle Le Bow. Promoters claimed visitors could see six states from the top, and Ripley's Believe It or Not publicized the tower in the 1930s. The Friends of The Genoa Tower group is restoring the site and plans to turn it into a creative hub and community gathering place. Visiting is limited to certain days and to appointments arranged with volunteers.
