I spent the twilight hours on the observation deck and also the 44th floor outside observation deck.  All I can say is the LED lights to light up the TT cap are bright as hell when you are standing right next to them.  Anyways I hope you enjoy the pics.

Oh wow, those are gorgeous- thanks!

Bee-yoo-tee-full!!!

 

After seeing this, I just realized that I don't remember seeing that many nighttime photo shoots of Cleveland's downtown skyline, especially from up in the buildings. Maybe I'm just not remembering it right. But to me these are some of the most beautiful views of any city.

 

Oh, BTW: Large body of water + sunset = great photos anytime!

Awesome photos!  Good job!

Awesome shots!

Talk about a 'bird's eye view" of DT Cleveland, you nailed it!  A really beautiful and helpful view for all to see; I'm glad that you were able to take so many fine night shots.

Wonderful views! You were there at the perfect time, on the picture-perfect evening.

Nice!  I am guessing you have to know someone to get out on the 44th floor deck.  This is the first I've heard of it existing.

 

I know about the closet sized radio studio that is the 52nd floor, but what else is above the 42nd?

Excellent shots! Thank you for posting. I wish they would open up those outside decks to the public. And at night!

Thanks!  Too many drains to trip over and LED lights to knock out of alignment for the area to be open to the public.

Very nice!

Very cool. Love the shot of PS. Looks like the streets are glowing.

Great sequence of shots, especially the sunsets and moon rise.  :clap:

That was a treat.  Beautiful shots, thanks.

I'm not from Cleveland, but I visited very recently and went up in the TT observation deck. What's going on in the "puke" photo? Is that for the casino?

^ Yes, that's the infamous parking garage "Welcome Center" site.  There are many pages of commentary relating to it in the Cleveland casino discussion thread.

Of course, because it really looked like DT Cleveland was starving for some more parking. On the bright side, there should be a "lot" of exciting development to look forward to sometime in the future.

 

I had a great time when I was there. I'll probably be back soon.

^What a view of Lake Erie!
