Nice shot. That was before that area around the tracks started redeveloping.

AND before Wachovia

Also a good illustration of where the new art museum will be. It's going in the parking lot on the left for those that don't know. I've been too lazy to go photograph the site so thanks for posting this photo.

[StevenRocks]

I can't wait to see that museum go up

[urbanvb]

Great site for it, monk. Isn't it practically at the big market square? That bridge leads from Roanoke Hotel to the market, doesn't it?

Wow Burt, you've been everywhere. You must have traveled alot, you know more about cities in Virginia than most locals.

That looks very similar too my favorite parking garage in Norfolk. I'll have to find a picture so I can post it. They're almost identical though.

[weill]

yeah thats a good picture roanokefound, but i see it all the time. vdogg, maybe same architect?

[RoanokeFound]

Hows this one? Deeper shade of soul.

[weill]

wow great picture^^are we supposed to guess what it is of?

[RoanokeFound]

How about you guess the view. Obvious it was shot from the top of Mill Mountain, but as we all know - theres more than one overlook on the Mount.

So pick the direction, if you will. Or identify a landmark within if its easier for you.

Maybe a guess the photo thread is not such a bad idea...

[weill]

I dont exactely know but is that Salem?

[RoanokeFound]

its the right direction, and wayyy off in the distance that probably is Salem as a matter of fact.

Never thought of it till you said it.

[weill]

what did you think it was, just curious?

[RoanokeFound]

Well its not so much where I thought it was looking out on, but what you can see. Get it?

Not sure I do either... lol

[weill]

lol, what is that 3-4 story building towards the bottom?
