A mast is a man-made support structure, commonly used on sailing ships as support for sails, or on land as radio masts and towers used to support telecommunication equipment such as radio antennas ("aerials" in the UK).
Most of the taller masts are located in the United States, where a prevalence of masts of around 2000 feet (609.6 m) in height is the result of special rules in that country limiting structures and objects taller than 2000 feet.
The Petronius Compliant Tower is an oil platform standing 2100 ft or 640 m (to the top of the spire) and is the tallest non-guyed structure in existence but is mostly underwater.
Situated in the southeast of Atlanta, Grant Park is the site of the ‘Cyclorama’, a huge circular, panoramic painting of the Civil War Battle of Atlanta, and also of the city's zoo.
Grant Park near Lake Michigan in Chicago was laid out in 1909 and is home to Buckingham Fountain (a popular gathering place and concert venue), the Field Museum of Natural History, Shedd Aquarium, and Adler Planetarium.
The park was the scene of violent clashes between the police and anti-Vietnam War protesters during the infamous Chicago Democratic National Convention of 1968.
