A really dreat view of the cc hotel can be had from I-10 Westbound upper level on the west side of downtown. I've always admired the view from the upper level over about Alamo, and the new CC hotel fills in a great hole. I was driving back from Houston two weeks ago and was really suprised how cool it looked, filling in some space.
Now if only we could fill in some space from 281 southbound, coming from the airport...
