Is this tower still standing, or has it been disassembled? Where is it located?

I'M IN LOVE! It sure is easy to dream about owning this set-up!
HOWEVER, I'm afraid that I'm feeling like the 93 year-old guy contemplating getting a 23 year-old wife; "I could have done it all easily when I was young, but now I think it would kill me if I even tried!"

Same here I don't know what I was thinking when I bought it. I guess I wasn't.

That is certainly awesome. What a long project to do.
Heck, I don't even buy green bananas any more.
