Birds eye view of San Francisco North Beach. You can see the city's landmarks, Trans America Building, Coit Tower and Alcatraz.

Super shot, Alex! Talking about swaying buildings, I worked in the Bank Of America Building, and before we moved in, they let us go up there and you could really notice the sway when there wasn't any furniture or anything in the building. We watched it being built..also saw the TransAmerica building go up. Seems now like they've always been there. #1423165

I traveled to the city three days a week for two years before retiring and worked in the tall building second to the left of the Trans America Building. Awesome POV and capture Alex. #9805689

Thank you Carolyn, Dave and Chris for your kind comments!!

Carolyn: I once went to the bar on the top of B of A. It had a such great view of SF. But I didn't feel any move luckily or maybe I was too drunk. LOL.

Dave: I didn't know you were from Bay Area also. You must have taken lots of beautiful images of the city.

Chris: I'll show some vantage points in SF next time you are here if you are interested. #9839850
