Here’s one of the better skyline angles you probably won’t see. Credit goes to my wife for showing me this “mystery” spot. I’m betting in the summertime you couldn’t see much from here.

It’s not often you can include the Archdale Building in an image of the Raleigh skyline.

I tried to digitally remove a great amount of tree branches that obscured the view.

This teaser of a vantage point conjures thought on what kind of views could be had if we had less tall trees in this area. It is a challenge to find many unique compositions due to the moderate height of our buildings in Raleigh and the city’s surrounding terrain.

This is the second episode of the Raleigh Skyline Tech Talk podcast. This is the podcast where Dustin and Matt discuss recent technology topics.  Topic covered in this podcast include the High Definition disk format war, Google image search results (magic eye), Internet connection speeds, Road Runner DNS, and Jet Blue.  This is a fun filled hour long show, packed with all kinds of techie goodness.

Currently sitting on the future site of the Edison is the makings of RBC Plaza’s height boosting spire. You can make out the pyramid structure that will eventually sit atop the building reaching its apogee at 538 feet above the ground. While it may not be the most interesting of topics, here are some photographs of it and the current status of RBC Plaza.

THE RBC Plaza.

The scale of the spire parts are much larger than they appear in the photos.

The massive new parking garage.
