Lots of people have heard of the Horton Grand Hotel in downtown San Diego, CA. Here's a view of the hotel that not too many people see - a view from the roof of this historic building. 

ISE was involved in a forensic case that required us to do some work on top of the hotel. The view is a panoramic one close to sunset looking towards the west towards Seaport Village and the convention center.
