The KOP would need it's own thread and a large one to catch all it's bustling activity going on around there.

Thanks for the rest of the nice comments, all! Upcoming will be a thread featuring the view from both observation levels of the CN Tower here in Toronto. First one being around 1100' high, the second one being nearly 1450' in height. As you can imagine, the views were pretty spectacular!

1/2 hour from Center City by car depending on traffic. Or you can take a 45 min train ride to fabulous downtown Norristown and have me pick you up like Glowrock did. I will force you to go to the King of Prussia Mall though

I've been to center city Philly, and to me, it just seems as tho Philadelphia has no pride in itself -- garbage everywhere and that awful city smell (sorry, I can't describe it). It really is a shame. There are so many wonderful landmarks such as those photographed above, but sometimes I feel a bit turned away by the filth and whatnot.

My wife and I were in Chinatown just last night for a Christmas dinner Chinese-style. We were talking among ourself how awesome Philly could be if only the crap could be cleaned up.

Those were awesome pics by the way. Let me know if you're out this way again. Wife and I live in Downingtown, which is a one-hour train ride from Center City along the Paoli-Thorndale regional rail line.

No, I never made it inside the building, unfortunately...
