This collection of photos was taken from the roof of the Lashkowitz High Rise building on Second Street South in Fargo, near the Red River. In this part of the country, when you get to the top of the 22nd floor of a building, it looks like you can see forever … and it’s a little scary. I hope you enjoy the photos; I certainly had fun making them. Click on any of the small images below to open a larger version of that photo.
(BTW, thanks to the staff at Lashkowitz for allowing me access.)
