When were you up there, David? I saw a young man with a very nice camera exiting the monument not long before the wife and I went up. A shame we got so little time but I'm just glad I was prepared and got some cool shots.

Well kudos to my parents for dropping my camera back off with me today. Some great stuff, even if shooting through the wire was worse than shooting through the catchfence at Daytona. Incredible views from the tower and it should be open way more often.

You got some great shots, I was up there too but don't know what I got because I left my camera at my parents' house 🤬. Same issues as you, though, the chicken wire was playing havoc with the focus. We'll see what I came out with eventually...

As great as the Hub on Causeway is, I wish they had kept the shell of the old Garden for some adaptive reuse, like the Montreal Forum or Maple Leaf Gardens - the latter of which is still a hockey arena, with a 3000 seat capacity rink for Ryerson University at the top of the structure, over a...

The wife and I were discussing the closure of the Pru's observation deck bars on the way into the city today and it hit me that this would be a perfect spot for a rooftop restaurant. Probably a non-starter with it being residential but the views would be incredible.

It's a shame to see the Inner Harbor so quiet nowadays. The vibes were always great there whenever I visited. I know they're still figuring out what's going to happen with the mostly-vacant Harbor Place buildings, whatever it is I will be sad to see them go as they are another example of PoMo...

This is just like the Garden demo 30 years ago. From Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1K1VMf9mx8/

MapJunction has some good aerial shots from before the 1960s, which may help: https://mapjunction.com/?lat=42.3447328&lng=-71.0825608&clipperX=0.5661458&clipperY=0.5554336&map1=google.SATELLITE&map2=mosaic.mapwarperlayer562&zoom=15.9332421&mode=overlay&b=0.000&p=0.000

When Eddie Bauer declared bankruptcy this week, the first thing I thought of were those old Fords. In a lot of ways, they were the precursor to true luxury SUVs, an off-roader with a bit of class. That dark green EB Explorer may actually be the most purely 1990s car. My parents got a 2nd gen...

Ah, those first gen Explorers were understatedly handsome. The Back Bay snow photos are so timeless.

I got this photo at the Celebration of BLS back in the fall, the new building really looms over Latin (and the rest of the street).

I never expected Ave. Louis Pasteur to look that dense from any angle.

A bit dated, but stumbled on this 360 view from the top of the Copley Westin from 2021: https://maps.app.goo.gl/DDkamXCGVPLfMV2J7

It speaks a lot to the times I grew up in that these photos remind me of the Murrah Building.

I've been on this constantly on here but it is incredible how exclusionary the redesigned mall is. A sterile, uninviting place to be, full of stores with items out of reach for anyone but the top 0.5%. There's a major paradox with places like this. The rich obviously don't want to be bothered by...

Should have never trusted ACME Travel

Works perfectly now. A shame that Flickr has gone down the tubes so much.
