I'm not sure how to word an improvement, but the tower's base is on the slope of Mt. Sutro, not on its peak. 66.218.54.163 ( talk) 06:43, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
Say, does anyone object to putting up this picture? ( http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Sutro_Tower.jpg) If not, go ahead and do it. I'm not bold enough. -Keith (Hypergeek14) Talk 17:20, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
At one time this article mentioned references in popular culture to the Sutro Tower and its significance, specifically its appearance in Fritz Leiber's World Fantasy Award Winning short story "Our Lady of Darkness". I can't find any archive information about why this section was removed. I found this information enriched the article and was appropriate for such a cultural/geographic landmark.

In Google Maps, you can see an large paved, fenced off octagonal area, about 75 m ⋅ 160 m, immediately to the northeast. It looks a bit like a rain water retention basin, but there are sheds and what appears to be solar collectors there. What is the purpose of this area? -- Tim Landscheidt ( talk) 18:35, 27 August 2014 (UTC)

The Lattice tower article has a picture of the Sutro Tower with the caption "Sutro Tower, a well-known San Francisco landmark featuring an uncommon 3-legged design." This caption made me realize there's nothing in this article about why this design was chosen for the Sutro Tower. It's possible it's a unique design.
The Indosiar Television Tower is similar with a 3-legged 120-meter (390 ft) tall structure that's used to support a much taller guyed tower. The Riga Radio and TV Tower tower is closer to the Sutro Tower's look and the article includes a section on its design and construction though it did not get into if the 3-legged approach was for wind resistance, earthquake resistance, aesthetics, or all of these. Neither tower though is like the Sutro's three connected legs. -- Marc Kupper| talk 20:48, 28 November 2020 (UTC)

An IP editor showed up and made these edits without WP:RS. I do not know if they are correct or not. The section has no WP:RS at this time. -- David Tornheim ( talk) 04:19, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
