Really bad quality, but shows the view of midtown and the Gulch from St. Thomas Midtown, where my wife delivered our newest Nashvillian this morning

Top golf washes out the entire night view from all points north, even to the naked eye. It’s VERY bright from everywhere. All those houses along Fern Ave et all are probably pissed. 

I wouldn't blame them if they were!  I've said it before, and I'll say it again.  That was a terrible location for a Top Golf.   I can hear the counterpoints now, and yes, it is better than what was there.  I do like Top Golf as a concept, but it should be out by Opryland or something.  You never see these in urban areas, and I suspect the ghastly lighting, coupled with the fact that in urban areas there usually isn't room for a giant field that has the soul purpose of hitting golf balls into, are the primary reasons why.  I mean, I usually have very little sympathy for those who complain of lost views, and the like, but it is a little insane if you think about it, that all of those people on the north side now have those spotlights ruining their views just so a handful of inebriated people can see where they're hitting golf balls.

Sending my best wishes to all from sunny California! Sad to be so far from home, but very pleased with the nice weather we've had here in Los Angeles. Looking forward to seeing all of my hometown's changes when I'm back next around Easter. The updates and photos from everyone are much appreciated by this homesick road warrior! Enjoy a couple of photos from my time here in L.A. Happy New Year!!!

^^I wonder how many of those guys who do the skyscraper walks end up falling?  Surely some of them fall...especially when they start doing "tumbling exercises" 500 feet up on a 6" rail.

those pictures make my skin crawl

Some guy in china fell back in November. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/14/world/asia/china-daredevil-skyscraper.html

The Russian guys are the most insane.  Some of their videos are so scary I can't watch them.

Those people make me so angry because I have several friends fighting cancer right now and fighting for life and these idiots are taking life for granted.

I don't see the relation. I think, too, that an argument could be made that these people are trying to live life to the fullest.

I ‘m surprised he was able to get to the tip of Batman’s spires. Isn’t there security in that building ?

[TNinVB]

Wow he’s been to the top of quite a few buildings in Nashville. One he’s naked on the 505 crane and then there’s one of him and a T-Rex on what looks like one of Bridgestones cranes. I did a double take lol.

Living life to the fullest doesn’t mean putting your life in immediate danger.  There’s a difference in living your life and being an idiot.

Easily the best picture of the year.  Of course, the year's only three days old. But still......
