Batumi Tower is a 200 m skyscraper on the seafront, completed in 2012. It was first planned as a technological university, stood empty for about two years, then was sold for hotel use: it now houses Le Méridien Batumi.
The Ferris wheel set into one corner of the facade, about 100 m up, was never put into service: it cannot be ridden and no tickets are sold. You can see it from the Boulevard and Rustaveli Avenue.
