I had the opportunity yesterday to go up in a new Cityscape tower going up downtown all while the fire department was doing a mock rescue from one of the site's tower cranes. It was certainly not for anyone with acrophobia.

Enjoy!

Am I the only one that got a sick feeling to their stomach while looking at some of those photos?

Thanks for sharing.

Very nice shots. What kind of camera do you shoot with? Those are very clear and very crisp.

The shots down the shafts and the dude HANGING off the basket made me woozy. ;-) I presume he had a harness but still....

Cool freakin pictures! I am jealous, I love heights and jumping out of planes!!! Wish I could have come along! However, for some reason, being suspended too long from a crane like that, would oddly freak me out! I don't get it, but that's how I react...hmmm! Love the pics though!

I like how there is a guy peaking out of the building at the top in the first picture.
