The Skyslide spans 45 ft from the 70th to the 69th floor of the US Bank Tower in the city. The Skyslide and OUE Skyspace were part of a $50 million renovation project to the U.S. Bank Tower, which is now the tallest building west of the Mississippi River. This will be California’s tallest open-air observation deck and the ideal destination for all around views of Los Angeles.

“The Sky Slide boasts a safe, thrilling experience unlike any other in the world”, said OUE’s Lucy Rumantir, President & Chief Executive Officer.
One can spot well-known landmarks around Los Angeles from the panoramic view of the observation deck, such as the legendary Hollywood sign and the Staples Center. For a $20 fee, the attraction offers 360-degree views of Los Angeles on the 69th and 70th floors, 2,800 square feet of open air observation decks, a restaurant and bar, and the big thrill: the Skyslide.
Slide tickets start at $27, which includes the trip down the slide and admission to the Skyspace observation deck.
The new Wilshire Grand, a few blocks away, will soar 1,100 feet into the sky, taking the title of tallest building on the West Coast, when it is finished next year.

You’d need nerves of steel for this new glass slide – hovering nearly 1,000 feet above ground level in one of the US’s tallest buildings.
