Posted July 10, 200618 yr Driving around Kentucky I found a new angle of the city that I haven't seen yet. It was pretty impressive and I plan on going back and getting this shot during dusk with less haze but here is the one I got for now.
July 10, 200618 yr God bless Covington, eh? "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers
July 10, 200618 yr God bless Covington, eh? God bless Ludlow!!!!!! That's where they have built some condos up on the hill. It's on the backside of devou. Pic taken 10/13/2005
July 10, 200618 yr Cincy does a good job at lighting up its marquee buildings, however, the other skyscrapers are left untouched without any accent lighting. I would definitely love to see this change and see a brighter/livelier downtown skyline.
July 10, 200618 yr Rich as usual is always holding out on us... Glad to see you finally post your pics. Also, does anyone know where this shot was taken? It is obviously a bridge, but which one? ...or is it a rooftop of an office building? Grasscat and I were looking for a good view of the new Convention Center sign with the skyline one night but we came up empty handed.
July 10, 200618 yr Like Rich said, the first shots were from the hills of Ludlow. The third photo I posted down the thread (from CincyUSA) is the photo in question about the location. It couldn't be taken from the Brent Spence, looks like a location in Queensgate? Ramada Inn Maybe?

Grasscat and I were looking for a good view of the new Convention Center sign with the skyline one night but we came up empty handed. I would bank on that shot coming from the 5/3 tower?
July 10, 200618 yr I would say it might be from atop one of those mid-rise office buildings west of downtown, maybe even the Holiday Inn (or whatever it is now).
July 10, 200618 yr It's a great angle..great pics. Downtown looks really dense from that angle. I hate to say it but I think the worse angle of downtown is one directly of the riverfront. The stadiums and freedom center add a nice touch but you don't get to see very many buildings.
July 10, 200618 yr I would bank on that shot coming from the 5/3 tower? What 5/3rd tower? Where is there a 5/3rd tower in Queensgate?
July 10, 200618 yr It seems like it could have been taken from various places in Price Hill..maybe Grand Ave. or Glenway avenue...or...whatever that street is called when you go up Glenway from 8th and State, and you turn left. I don't know. It doesn't seem like the right angle to be taken from Mt. Echo park.. I'm wondering if they took it from Price Hill and just have a really good zoom.
July 10, 200618 yr David, that photo is not from Price Hill, you can tell by the way the photo was taken that it was relatively close to downtown, a bridge or rooftop from Queensgate. I am trying to figure out which one, I will probably need to print the photo out and take it with me next time I am down there. This is what the skyline looks like from Price Hill
July 10, 200618 yr What about that hotel across from the shell station? Maybe someone took it from their hotel room?
July 10, 200618 yr Oh, sorry I skimmed through the thread. That seems like the most logical location.
