There is a construction camera for the Hyatt https://app.truelook.com/?u=ct1516919827#tl_live, which you can ask to swivel around. So you can see a number of other sites as well.

Here's a partial shot showing the W,

BTW you can zoom the camera too :-)

From the North, I'm surprised how much taller the W looks compared to the RATR.

The cut out on the right side is sharp.

Had my nice camera on me this morning, but only had the 35mm prime (DX format 50 equiv) so everything is a little tighter than what I prefer.

nice thisisforreal....you can tell the difference in photo quality from a better camera.

Here's a unique angle:

JohnIII · #**3111** Posted **Aug 23, 2018, 7:51 PM**

This building is pretty tall; a good deal taller than I expected; it has impact on the skyline.

The height of this building is key also because when I consider SLS International; when it gets built; if it gets built; we can have an accurate assessment of its impact on the skyline as well considering the stated height is only a few feet shorter.

Knight Hospitaller · #**3112** Posted **Aug 23, 2018, 9:30 PM**

Mr. Saturn's last angle is an especially unexpected view. I really didn't think this would appear to exceed the RATR by as much as it does.

^ These are pretty good, TK, but I'm not sure they need to be cross posted.

That's how I've always posted my updates, and always will since my photos include more than one tower under construction

Where were those photos taken from? I'm guessing the national wildlife refuge?

I have bad eyesight and amnesia. Double posting giant images really helps, in case I forgot what I saw in the previous thread and am having trouble seeing the pictures. Too bad for the rest of you. Thanks.

Then knock yourself out I guess. Ignore is a great function.
