shadows and light

From the WTHI-TV tower, the Hilton Gardens Terre Haute House constructions site -  

Wabash Avenue from 8th (at bottom) to 7th. Yes, the tall buildings that remain on the south side cast their shadows on Wabash Avenue and the edge of the construction site but the Hilton Gardens THH is taking form and casting its own shadow onto north 7th Street. It begins to look real. Posted by Picasa

skyline

If that is the term to use for a small city like Terre Haute, I'll call it a skyline and note that it is about to change. The Hilton Garden Terre Haute House at 7th and Wabash rises and will soon threaten the flight path of our beloved crows coming home from the outlying corn fields to roost at the top of the bank building.   Posted by Picasa
