The first shot was taken from atop the “Scotch & Sirloin” building. The second was taken over from North Station near Canal. There is a series of shots taken from up here I will post subsequently.

Off Boston Commons (Tremont & Temple). A very unfriendly Asian storekeeper will chase you away if you take pictures there.
