A walk through SA 4-03-08

I was downtown in San Antonio and had the camera. Enjoy.

The tint of the glass going up on Vidorra looks great.
I like the Final Four advertisements on the bottom of the Grand Hyatt.
The mechanical penthouse looks incredible.

Great pictures! Very nice, thanks for taking them. The Riverwalk is so pretty. I've walked all over the Riverwalk and still haven't seen the entire thing.

Grand Hyatt looks sleek here. The mechanical penthouse looks good too.

i am appreciating the love...thanks for the kind words.

the grand hyatt looks sleek from a lot of angles. i noticed that there weren't many (from the ground) that gave you any idea how "wallish" it is.

also, the yellowish addition to the drury plaza is for you, kevin. i remember you wondering why it would be that color. well, for better or worse, it's yellow - it is interesting how they added all those floors to what was a simple parking garage. space is really at a premium, i guess and people are coming up with vertical solutions.

Silver for the penthouse is a, uh, bold choice, to say the least.

Thanks. I noticed those by the way. It's not all that bad. Those screens on the lower floors are an interesting way of covering up the parking levels. And the upper portion isn't so bad.
