Description: The KVLY-TV mast, also known as the "KVLY-TV Tower," is a prominent landmark and a broadcasting tower located near Blanchard, North Dakota, USA. It is one of the tallest structures in the world and has historically held the title of the tallest man-made structure. The KVLY-TV mast stands at an incredible height of approximately 2,063 feet (628.8 meters), including its antenna. It was constructed in 1963 to support the television transmitter for KVLY-TV, a local TV station serving the Fargo-Grand Forks, North Dakota market. The tower was surpassed in height by the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, which became the tallest structure in the world when it was completed in 2010. However, the KVLY-TV mast remains an impressive engineering feat and an essential part of the broadcasting infrastructure in the region.
