Best Places in the Twin Cities to take pics.

I like to use this as a thread to list out spots you can take a car to and get great pics.

Specific parking rampes where the top gives you an awesome skyline view with the city. Railway location, under bridges, ect ect. Places you won't get in trouble with by having your car there.

Your bedroom worked ok for us didnt it?

Downtown ramps A B C by the target center. By the newer bridge downtown next to the Mississippi... Lots of places downtown that you can get the skyline in your background.

I liked the pics of my car out at Hudson near the marina. I think the water looks nice in the background. I should have taken more though with different backgrounds.

Hwy 100 and 70th street in Edina. Go east and take your first right, its some sort of garden area with a nice fresh black-top parking lot. Looks purdy.

Re: Best Places in the Twin Cities to take pics.

Wow i'm dumb... I have a monthly pass to the B ramp and I never even thought of taking pics up there.

Has anyone tried getting in with one car then like getting out of the car and handing it off to someone behind you so you could take multiple cars up to the roof with 1 pass?

I would love to get some better shots of my car since I did my headlights, especially at night. If anyone wants to try that let me know, i'd be willing to try.

I would imagine downtown Stillwater right next to the river would be nice too. Haven't tried that yet, every time I want to take pictures of the car I end up doing it in my driveway because I can't think of where to go.

I would think twice about this. Call and ask the parking ramp if you just want to take some pics and then leave if you still would need to pay. How about on the dyno here, $75 for 3 pulls and you can get some cool pics.
