Thats what I was going to say, lol

You rarely see any photos of DC anywhere of what the streetscape looks like, its always the same thing, the monument, the white house and so on. Thanks for this though, it actually shows you what the rest of the city looks like.

Thanks cirrus. I was specifically looking for the ballpark with no luck. I also didn't realize the waterfront was so close to things.

Heh. I'm the guy who took the photo. You can see the shadow of the Washington Monument between the American History museum and the Ronald Reagan building, going Northeast. You can't see the actual monument because I took the photos that went into the panorama from the monument's observation deck.

^ I think it was a joke, but welcome to the forum. Post more if you got them. We don't see enough of DC.

Really cool picture. Rare to see an image that shows what the DC urban texture is like.

cirrus -

The bridge on the far right of the pano is the Case Bridge which crosses over the Washington Channel. 14th Bridge is further to the left.
