A narrow street in Puerto Vallarta’s Zona Romántica angles upward toward the city’s steep green hills, where a red-and-white radio tower crowns a weathered building labeled Restaurante El Panorama. The scene captures the city’s layered verticality—low stucco terraces with clay roofs in the foreground give way to midcentury apartment towers clinging to the slopes. The dense mix of balconies, street lamps, and satellite dishes reflects Puerto Vallarta’s blend of resort development and lived-in coastal community, where mountain terrain meets compact urban architecture.

The IDS Center rises into the evening light in downtown Minneapolis, its rooftop antennas silhouetted against a soft autumn sky. Designed by Philip Johnson and John Burgee and completed in 1972, the 792-foot tower remains the tallest building in Minnesota. The dark mechanical crown houses HVAC systems and broadcast transmitters, while the curtain wall’s reflective glass panels catch the last warm tones of sunset alongside the adjacent RBC Gateway Tower.
