Developing on an initial proposal by Bblur Architecture, Artist Carsten Höller designed the 178 m-long helter skelter, set to open on June 24.

"Since 1999, I have built a number of slides, both free-standing and attached to buildings, but never onto another artwork as in this case," said Höller, who also installed a pair of spiraling slides for an exhibition at the Hayward Gallery last summer.
"Now that the two artworks will be intertwined with each other, I see it as one of these double situations that I am so interested in."

The Orbit Tower slide will have 30 sections and 12 turns, including a corkscrew twist. It starts at a height of 74 meters, has a top speed of 15 miles per hour and takes 40 seconds to complete.
