Is the one at Wynn of changing curve angles? That would be niftier.

No, same degree of curve the whole way. I figured it wasn't the first of its kind, but it was the first I'd seen. And some cursory research shows that they're still pretty rare. The whole presentation is great because it's set up to look like your standard grand stairway entrance, with a curved staircase going up either side...but they're escalators.

Heh, having just returned from Chicago and New York where we visited the 94th, 103rd, and 86th floors of the Hancock, Sears Tower, and Empire State respectively, 60 was kinda pedestrian (though the wall-o-glass that ran the length of the suite was quite picturesque).
