Scope Of Work
Cianbro erected the Capital Wheel, a new landmark attraction at the dynamic National Harbor community near Washington, D.C. With 42 climate-controlled gondolas, the observation wheel soars 175 feet above the Potomac River, providing stunning views of the Washington Monument and the U.S. Capitol, as well as vistas of both the Maryland and Virginia sides of the river. Erected on a Cianbro-built concrete pier, the Capital Wheel includes 1.6 million fully-programmable LED lights.
