Yesterday I went on assignment to document the status of the new 101 block of N College in the Queen City's Uptown. I started by taking pictures from a top secret location 400 feet up in the 214 N Tryon Hearst Tower which gave me the bird's eye view. Then I went to the ground and made some images from College and 5th. While I was walking along College I talked to a surveyor who told me that the Ritz Carlton was going up to the right and a new 37 story Bank of America Tower would be taking up the center. This fellow also told me that they are still digging into the bedrock to reach an anchoring point even though we have been hearing the explosions for months.

Hey Billy,
I'd love to get some of these birds' eye views you are getting. How can I get them? If possible, I'd like to give my fiance a view of the city she's never seen before on some Saturday.

Jimmy,
I have some ideas and depending on the capacity of your camera and mind that I bet will work out well for you. Instead of going into perhaps pages of detail here I will talk with you when I drop the next mail.
Cheers`
