Omaha Skyline from 360

Post by Coyote »

I just was at Harrah's 360 restaurant on their 12th floor and the view of Omaha is awesome from there. I wish some buildings were better lit or had lights on, like the new UP building. I doubt they will always have that lit up - but what a view.

While we were there fireworks went off at the qwest center and from somewhere else, maybe Gallup campus. It was like they were testing a coordinated display. Anyone know what's cooking?

Yeah, the view of the skyline from Harrah's is fantastic. I've taken lots of photos from there, but I've never been to 360.

I would have liked to take pictures from the roof.
I know someone up the ladder there - so to speak -
I'm going to ask him if he can get me outside for a shoot.
You can see the river and the city for a classic pic.

That location has definitely one the best views of downtown! Here's a photo I took from the parking garage last summer:
