Tapered Tower with Observation Pod The CN Tower is a 553.3 meter communications and observation tower in downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada, built on the former Railway Lands and completed in 1976. Its name refers to Canadian National, the railway company that built it; after the railway divested its non-core freight assets ahead of privatization in 1995, ownership passed to the Canada Lands Company, the federal Crown corporation that manages the government's real estate portfolio.
