Boston Common Monument, south view

North and south views around Boston Common from the Soldiers and Sailors Monument on Flag Staff Hill.

 

Here, we're looking roughly south. The brown skyscraper at the left edge is near Government Center, which is roughly northeast from this view; the middle horizon cuts across the Financial District and Chinatown, then the Theatre District and South End, with some of Back Bay to the southwest at the right horizon, including the John Hancock and Prudential buildings through the trees & sun.

 

The "straight" walkway in the foreground is actually a circular ring going around the monument, but ended up looking roughly straight in the panorama view.
