Title: 2008 Convention Venue Pictures
Post by: Kioko_chan on July 16, 2008, 03:10:00 pm
Now I am not sure if this is the best place to stick this thread but it is a general convention matter...  So if its not then I apologize. I was just wondering if anyone had pictures of the convention venue for 2008 at Double Tree. Inside or outside the con area and preferably not the ones on the official site.>< I am just wondering what the area looks like so I know what to expect photoshoot wise for my costumes. Thanks.

I agree that that would be super helpful. Pictures of nearby parks would be nice as well  :)

If you mean the area, click this and use "Street view"

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=1086+NE+11th+ave+%26+NE+Holladay+st&sll=45.537828,-122.655487&sspn=0.017495,0.04446&layer=c&ie=UTF8&ll=45.530418,-122.654564&spn=0.008748,0.02223&z=16&cbll=45.530667,-122.65457&panoid=eAAKPVrPMLPJDtWLXnYOUQ

Click on the little lego-person icon and pan the camera to the left. That's the double-tree.

That's helpful, thanks for posting that link.

I was searching through my photo albums because I could have sworn I had some great photos of the Lloyd Center park, but I can't find them. *shrug*

How about videos?

I had a video that showed the park but I trashed it. I agree that Google Street View is the best for looking at the outside.
