I've been able to clean up these prior pics from 10/06 to get rid of some of the haze:

Were these shots taken viewing through that protective glass thing or above it?

Excellent shots of one of my favorite cities. Thanks for sharing.

The shots were taken in the outside viewing area, while I was holding the camcorder over the iron fence.

Thanks for making me homesick. If you really wanna make me cry take a stroll around Southtown/King William and take some pics. I would really appreciate it! Great pics!

Even better the 2nd time around. I can't wait to visit the tower next month. I'm going to fill that memory card with photos!

The little white building directly in the center of the photo, and directly in between the two tallest structures in this shot...

Could've become this:

Someday, we'll be up there snapping pics and there won't be a hole in the skyline over there anymore.

(And, if you notice, the rendering has a boxy 10-story structure incorporated into the new tower - it is the same building, just with it's nasty white cladding removed.)
