Seven "modern" skyscrapers make up the Renaissance Center of downtown Detroit. Built from 1973-1977, the "city within a city" is owned by the General Motors Corporation, which also houses their world headquarters. Ironically, the original prime mover for the concept and development of RenCen was Henry Ford II (Ford Motor Company).
The 73-story central tower (tallest building in Michigan), is ringed by four 39-story towers, and two 21-story towers.
In addition to the GMC's headquarters, the buildings are currently occupied by 10,000 workers in the offices, restaurants, shops and Marriott Hotel.

Currently (as of date taken) the largest mural in Oakland, CA. Called "Zero Hunger" it is one of six across the United States meant to bring attention to the issue of world hunger. Mural shows a smiling young Black girl with sunlight on her face, holding a bundle of wheat. The 190 feet tall piece is on the Marriott Hotel building at Broadway & 11th Street. It will be there indefinitely. The mural's artist is Victor Ash 😍💖

Couple of hundred metres away from the Palace of Westminster is the 5 star Marriott Hotel, within what use to be County Hall.
The main six storey building was designed by Ralph Knott and opened in 1922 by King George V. The North and South blocks, which were built by Higgs and Hill, were added between 1936 and 1939. The Island block was not completed until 1974.[4]
For 64 years County Hall served as the headquarters of local government for London.

ذكرتني طلعت البدر نور عيوني
يوم شفته هلت العبره المخفيه
من يلوم المغرم المولع المفتوني
لي تذكر شوق ووجنت ورديه
ليتهم يا سعود ليروح مروني
مع غروب الشمس بقفاية العصريه
أتمنى والتمني يزيد اغبوني
غيبوه يا خوف ما عندهم ماويه
ليتني في سجتي رحت ما صابوني
من يداوي الجرح والعله الدخليه
خبروني عنه ضاق الحشا بشجوني
ما قويت الصبر حبه تمكن فيه
btw : Happy Birthday to NαмoOr

Excerpt from www.hospitalitynet.org/announcement/41007033/the-pearle-h...:
The Pearle Hotel and Spa announced today it will open on Burlington's vibrant waterfront (3 Elizabeth Street) on November 1st, 2021.
The urban retreat just steps from Lake Ontario is designed by the award-winning design firm Studio Munge and emulates a modern lake house with elegant white oak panelling, tranquil views of the lake and the heart of downtown. Through thoughtful design, the 151 guest rooms and all public spaces reflect the richness of the changing Canadian seasons.
The luxurious, full-service spa is reminiscent of the arrival of spring, with a curated offering of rejuvenating treatments. Adjoining the spa, a Hammam steam room, an indoor swimming pool, and a state-of-the-art fitness facility adds to the guest experience.
The Pearle Hotel and Spa is home to two inventive, farm-driven dining options, with much of their offerings grown on Pearle Hospitality's own farm located 20 minutes down the road. Inspired by the vibrant, casual days of summer, The Pearle Hotel's restaurant Isabelle headed by Executive Chef Ben Heaton (formerly Patria, Mira, Byblos), has an expansive lakeside terrace with a weather-friendly patio destined to be a space for sharing and connecting with loved ones. The hotel will also house the fourth location of the popular Earth to Table: Bread Bar for high quality ingredient dishes and coffee with more casual cafe seating.
The hotel's exclusive event floor features elegantly designed event space totalling 10,000 square feet. With show stopping floor-to-ceiling windows, hand-blown fixtures by local artisans, and breathtaking lake views, The Pearle Hotel and Spa is the perfect venue for any event, from executive retreats to weddings — memorable moments are guaranteed.
The Pearle Hotel and Spa is inspired by the Ciancone family matriarch, grandmother Pearle, whose work ethic and spirit of hospitality remain deeply admired by her family today. Elegant and free of formality, The Pearle Hotel and Spa embodies and honours the founders' grandmother Pearle.

This was taken on a Quayside immediately north of the Canary Wharf financial district with its towers on the right of the picture. The curved tower in the centre is the London Marriott Hotel. The crane in the image is a preserved one from the time when Docklands was an active port not a financial centre. This was a 57 seconds long exposure using a B&W 10 stop Neutral Density filter. A few minutes after this picture was taken the first spots fell and I retreated to under a bridge by the DLR Station just in time before the downpour started which set in for the evening. I still managed a fair few more shots from undercover locations.
The picture was taken on a Tripod with a Sony A700 with a Sigma 10-20mm lens at 11 mm. One RAW image shot with a 10 stop ND Filter. After Raw adjustments I extended the sky to make room for more perspective correction. This is done in Photoshop by first extending the Canvas Size above the image by about 200 pixels. I had about the same amount of sky above the Towers. A rectangular selection was made and then edit and Free Transform. Then it is just a matter of dragging and expanding the sky into the extra canvas area. This gives more room above to use filter, lens correction custom and vertical perspective to straighten the converging verticals of the Towers.
A little Noise was removed with Nik Define. I used Topaz Clarity for more detail and Topaz Adjust applied on a duplicate layer with a mask to darken and smooth just the sky.
