    I have seen that before on the observation deck of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building.

    When I lived in Dallas I worked at 2001 Bryan Tower on the 27th floor (40 floors) and we could see snow at our level but by the time it hit the ground it was drizzle.

    I know, how terrible that a thriving downtown requires parking for employees and visitors. They should stop all construction and immediately begin to wipe out all of Downtown/Bricktown and order 20,000 trees and truck loads of new sod.

    Adjectives are words that describe or modify another person or thing in the sentence, e.g., "Just look at all that beautiful surface parking."

    Took this 5 minutes ago out my office window. It's on my iPad2 which has no zoom and poor camera resolution, but it doesn't do the view justice. From this angle, the crown really makes sense and the building is starting to look like the model and renderings. I'll have to bring my DSLR on Monday to show what I mean.

    Have no fear, I'll be back in town in a few hours. I'll get some shots if it's not cloudy.

    Pete, are there some posts that you deleted? cause it seems like I am not being able to see any posts by a BG918. The only thing I can see from him is when others reply from his posts. Like Bluedogok post #7399. I see BG918 "I Got connections" reply with Quote on bluedogok's post.

    He had to remove his own pictures, because a company working construction demanded him to remove his pictures even though he have full ownership of his pictures. Sad, eh? If I was told to remove my pictures by Devon or construction company, I would sue.

    Perhaps, as a matter of courtesy to a fellow member, just letting it go as one of those things that happens might be a sound approach?

    They were incredible while they lasted. It is a shame if you didn't get to see them they were spectacular views to say the least.

    We got them saved. Just post them somewhere and pass around privately or go on the national skyscraper forums.

    No video today. Too hot. What a welcome reminder I'm back home. Sweating through my clothes twenty minutes after leaving the terminal. I did go by on I-40. A lot of progress while I've been gone.

    BTW, I shot some video of the tower coming into the airport from Denver. Looked pretty amazing.

    Well, thank (Creator) I saved the ones I like before they had to be taken down!

    Too bad they had to be taken down. But better than possibly having someone lose their job over it (his connection).

    Not nitpicking, just trying to emphasize the part of pickles' comment that rc didn't seem to understand. It's pretty clear that pickles' problem is not with parking, but rather having giant lots instead of something lake a garage that utilizes space in a more efficient way.

    No, I get your drift...don't worry. You're new. There's a difference between reading posts and actually responding. There's a fine line of sarcasm on this site, hence my winking Smiley face. ;-)
