A neat before and after photo gallery from the UT Tower observation deck. By the way, the south view says it was taken in 1977. There is no way that photo is from 1977. The Westgate Tower is missing from the photo, among others. The Westgate Tower was finished in 1967. So there's no way it could have been from 1977. It's from sometime in the early 60s, but no later than 1965.
