Yeah...I was using this for my wallpaper for quite some time.

What an ugly day today. Nonetheless, I decided to check out the Chase st overpass:

414 Water St. looks really wide in this shot. I can't wait until they put the pyramid on top.

Yeah, I think this angle would be great for some long exposure night shots. Would show long lines of headlights down below against downtown lights. Very urban view.
Its a real pitty that one building is blocking the dome on the city hall.

Man! I can just see 300 East Pratt rising in that shot. It will look awesome from that angle.

1989 (not mine, but it's very beautiful)
http://www.flickr.com/photos/photo_a...rry/169617454/

I also remember an aerial of downtown that used to be in the Google Images search, but now I can't find it. It was a picture of Baltimore around 1990 or 1991 (maybe slightly earlier than that) with 100 E. Pratt still not up, but several buildings were under construction (the Gallery was complete, so it was after 1988.) It was facing southeast and you could see Harborplace. Anyways, it would be great to compare that one to now, if anyone knows about it.

Beautiful sunset! I think its taken from Anchorage Marina or the ******** behind it on Boston st. You can even see the BromoSeltzer. Also, this angle would include 10 IH.

Yup, and thats only part of southeast Baltimore. I agree Mason 10IH and 300 E. Pratt will look unbelievable in that shot. 4 Seasons will also look good in the shot too. Don't forget its going to be taller than the Marriot Waterfront.

The Four Seasons will actually probably appear taller than the Legg Mason tower from this angle. But I really think 10IH and the Naing Towers will be the best additions to that view, since they'll book-end the CBD.

This is cool!! I've never seen a shot from that angle before. Note that the Vue and 414 Water St are not in the picture..so this must have been a couple years ago. Could this have been taken from the First Mariner building?

No, a bit further north...from Brewer's Hill at S. Conkling and Odonnell Streets. That street running down towards the harbor is Dillion Street.
