After months of construction and confusion, the KC Wheel is finally open. The 150-foot-tall Ferris wheel, which towers over Interstate 35 and Broadway Boulevard, began spinning visitors on Thursday, Dec. 14.
The wheel has been in the works since August, and is now a colorful nightly addition to Kansas City’s iconic skyline. Hundreds of thousands of LED lights help illuminate the wheel and are capable of creating millions of color combinations, fit for any occasion.
So, what’s it like to ride? Star reporter Joseph Hernandez and photographer Emily Curiel took a spin hours before it opened to the public.
