Laura Morrison's City Council Ad


by: Karl-Thomas Musselman

Sat Apr 26, 2008 at 05:44 PM CDT

Here is City Council Place 4 candidate Laura Morrison's TV ad.

I was trying to figure out which specific development those 3 ominous black towers were in the middle of the ad. Using Google Earth and it's new 3D buildings, it was pretty easy to pinpoint it to the Green Water Treatment Plant between the Seaholm redevelopment and City Hall, prime redevelopment land.

For kicks and grins (and since I'm not aware if a trio of towers has even been proposed for that land), I drew up some mock-ups of the towers and their approximate location in Google Earth and recorded the following fly-around.

Here is a high resolution file and a second flyby as well (and the Google Earth .kmz file if you want to play around with it).

- Hi Res Flyby One
- Hi Res Flyby Two
- Google Earth Building (.kmz)
