[QUOTE="DTigga, post: 103584, member: 12060"] Yes... the infamous Southern Star observation wheel. There is quite a story about it actually. It was Melbourne's attempt at replicating the London Eye and someone high up suggested it would draw tourists to the area, but after 40 days of operation in 2008 it had to close due to a series of structural defects (cracks). It soon became a bit of a laughing point among Melbournians.
