thought i'd post pictures taken with a d300 Nikon. A must have camera. I do photographyon the side for a hobby and thought posting pictures of great structural design would inspire future builders to build not so square shaped. Also threw in some old vs. new with the church and the spire.

Denver is looking damn good these days and those old 19th century buildings look so beautiful. Great update.

It really is an incredible difference. Just compare that to the same angle from 2004 (from DenverInfill.com)

Fantastic! I love it when new construction captures the warmth and charm of the past. I just had assumed from the first pic that this row of buildings was a wonderful restoration. I had no idea that something so incredible had been accomplished until I saw this before and after. This is a definite pic to be filed for my future reference. LOVE IT!!!

4-20-09 Update! Click Here

The Spire (left) and Four Seasons (right) are beginning to make a statement in Denver's skyline.
Here is a great view of both skyscrapers from the LoDo district of downtown:

I love the new Okayyou addition. I think we need to get rid of the "future" rendering. I might come up with something sometime, or Okayyou can take a stab.

Thanks Dirt, the file is saved as a .psd with each building having its own layer. I can add or drop buildings as the finish / get announced.

I could try a skyline shot but in a few months there won't be much to paste into the photo as 4S, spire, and 1800 Larimer will all be topped out / almost completed. I suppose T2 would still need to go in there. I'd like to do another now / then pano when the aforementioned buildings finish up, just make sure rds70 keeps taking photos from the same spot.

Awesome update! Thanks Snyder and Okayyou (for the awesome header)!

Indeed, "what a difference a decade makes".

No one ever posts in this thread in comparison to the Denver Development thread in the Mountain West section. Others must think nothing goes on.

Wow now that looks booming. Lot's of towers I see.

Reminds me of Calgary with all the towers rising. Edmonton does more low rise/mid rise.
