A view high above New York City from The Top of the Rock. The observation deck is located on the 70th floor of the GE Building at 30 Rockefeller Plaza. Closed to the public since 1986, the Top of the Rock underwent a $75 million renovation, and once again reopened on November 1, 2005. Manhattan can be seen bounded by the Hudson River on the right and the East River on the left. Other famous landmarks that can be viewed include the Empire State Building and Chrysler Building.

This view of downtown Seattle is taken from Queen Anne Hill at Kerry Park. This park was given to the city in 1927 for all those to enjoy. The 605 foot Space Needle, which opened for the 1962 World's Fair, can be seen in the center. Elliott Bay is on the right, while Mt. Mount Rainier can slightly be seen in the background at 14,411 feet.
