The CN Tower and Rogers Centre (formerly the Skydome, home of the Blue Jays) are in downtown Toronto, Canada. Look for the tower’s shadow to see its shape.

For centuries, the port of [Aden][w] has served as Yemen’s gateway to the the world. Its distinctive double harbour lies in the crater of an extinct volcano. Over the years, a number of wrecked ships have accumulated in Aden’s harbour, many of which are visible in Google Maps imagery.

Cool. I submitted this one too! Pretty cool veiw I think. It’s an impressive building to stand below. It’s worth the bother of seeing for real
Great site!
Very nice picture. I was looking for it, but you found it first. The shadow is excellent.
Really good picture. The Tower is really worth going to and the views from the Restaurant and the highest level above that are amazing in good weather! Looks like the Skydome (or Rogers Centre) has it’s roof closed which is a pity.
There’s one spot in the CN Tower’s observation deck where you can stand on a glass floor and look straight down, which is really, really freaky.
Just to the east of the tower is a semi-circular looking thing, which is the Metro Toronto Convention Center, a huge, largely underground complex. Moving a little further east, the big white rectangle just south of the rail yards is the Air Canada Centre, home of the Maple Leafs and Raptors.
pudge, the semi-circular building is the old railway roundhouse which has now been converted to the Steamwhistle brewery. the convention centre is north of the cn tower, with the yellowish stained roof. it is opposite the cbc building that was designed with the help of philip johnson.
Realy great it is , there I can see the half-circle building ,but I don’t know what it is ,I’m from china ,and I hope this comment can be seen by all of you, and wish you could tell me more about the beautiful things there !

Scroll down a bit and you’ll see the shot of my feet, standing on the glass floor!
