Good question. I was wondering myself? At first I was thinking 130' wide x 130' tall?

Someone has designed the model for Google Earth, I'll post a screen shot in a sec.

I thought it was Charlotte at first glance! Where's the Radisson?

What tipped me off was the illuminated top of the 1180 Peachtree building in the left part of the photo.

Welllll...maybe it is. I mean, if you look at that diagram, it does seem that the tiara is over 100' high. And I kinda think the design of the building itself is too narrow for it to be 130' north to south. So maybe...?

Oh wow, that's pretty cool. I keep wanting to load Google Earth on my computer. So that gives me a reason to.

There is an illusion. It's in a hole in a ground. I've been to Cinci so many damn times and I not been impressed ONCE. To me, it's not even a debate. I understand the egocentric views toward your hometown... but Cinci people are ridiculous. Everywhere I go they think they are superior.. it's just a weird mix of people in general. Spread out? Yeah it's more spread out then Cinci because it's much larger. And you are probably going on the basis of some angles from pictures on here. Just look at this shot from above :



If you take away those 3 tallest buildings, you would essentially have cinci's skyline... except it's not in a freakin' hole

You posted a photo of ATLANTA, thinking it was Cleveland.

And you feel qualified to talk about which Ohio skyline is better...??

Nice rebuttal.
