The actual view from one side of my sister's place. The buildings were so close. These aluminum-looking buildings are Gateway Center Nos. 2 and 4, I think.


I thought I had some of the river view, but it's not in my phone. I think it was because I was having trouble walking close enough to her front window, which is scary to anyone with a fear of heights. I was too conscious of having only a couple of inches of building between me and the outside, and I'd surely fall and smash through and plummet the 2 dozen or so floors to the ground. You know how the mind works, if you have this phobia. It doesn't always affect me the same way; sometimes I actually enjoy the height.

Suffice to say I could not, would not, live in a high-rise or skyscraper. The elevators are a fear thing too.
