Now those are floodlights, WesternGulf!

I remember I had to turn up the light level in the same way when I was trying to get a shot of Houston House at night within the past year... Great to see the construction spots at night though.

Also, where was that photo of the Med Center taken from Xeelee? I'd guess it was one of the office buildings/garages near Kirby & 59...

West Ave. is really coming along as well. This is a photo from Sunday morning

Yes. I took them when I was out riding around town. The air felt good flowing through my hair.

Now which area is this? Is this the Medical District? I've seen that really tall, dark building several times now. I'm assuming that's a residential tower. Actually, I'm asking about the really tall building on the left in the photo just above this one.

Yes, that's the Medical Center, and the building to the far left is Memorial Hermann Medical Plaza, which is a medical office tower with an 11-story garage in it's base. It was completed at the end of last year. Some decent places to get a quick bite to eat there as well...

Kinda odd to see the old Crowne Plaza in the mix as well since it was gone the next day.

Yes, that's DT from the southwest.

Getting closer and closer to having another stadium around the Downtown area, this time for the Dynamo.

Nice pics. Man I cant wait for Main Place to start rising. It will be curious as to where you will be able to see it, depending on which way you are coming into town...
