Florida – West Palm Beach: Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Landmark Memorial

Question by Jared: What are some “landmarks” that are by the side of the Susquehanna River?
Alright, for my project, I have to have some “landmarks” that are by the side of the Susquehanna River/Chesapeake Bay. You have to be able to see them as if you were on the river. I Have a few, and if you could just help, that would be wonderful. A landmark would be something “noteworthy or well-known”

Graceland and Beale Street in Memphis (and please don’t mention the embarrassment of the Pyramid), the Parthenon in Nashville, and perhaps most sacred of all, the Jack Daniels distillery in Lynchburg (said reverently, with hat in hand).

Greenwich Village is the place to go drinking. Lots of well-known pubs that celebrities go to. Some musicians got their start there. It’s the artsy part of town. It’s near the city college around Ave. of the Americas and 9th St.

What famous Montreal city landmarks should we see in 2 days?

Staten Island Landmark 7

Question by : What well-known Montreal city landmarks should we see in 2 days?
My wife & I will be visiting Montreal this weekend. We’re from New York. What places should we not miss? (like times square, statue of liberty, empire state building etc in new york). We have only 2 days. We know nothing about Montreal. Is there a excellent sightseeing tour that we can take? Thanks for your help.
P.S. We dont converse in French at all, would that be a problem? I have heard before that even “STOP signs” are in French. Can we drive around without much problem?

Best answer:

Answer by themaskedfalcon
I would suggest, that you take a walk through Ancient Montreal, Notre Dame Basilica, and go to Olympic Stadium/Biodome, etc.. Take a look at http://www.tourisme-montreal.org/Travel-In rank/Getting-Around-Montreal for some walking maps and the location of uncommon sites.
Not speaking french would be fine, most people are willing to converse in english if necessary. Even driving around should be fine, just keep in mind that in Montreal that right on reds are not allowed.

Staten Island Landmark 10

Question by dubgraphix: What are the copyright laws regarding using silhouettes of well-known landmarks and/or buildings?
Im working on a logo for a client and they are requesting a profile of a well-known structure without license or documented permission of use and I was wondering if there are any such copyright laws against this? I’ve never ran across this scenario before as a designer so I’m not sure about this one. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Answer by yellowcar29
In most cases it is ok, but some shapes or silhouettes are trademarked by companies or protected by governments. If it’s very well known then it may be protected. I would try out first.

Kilkenny Castle is value a trip too….so much around there to see,really doesn’t matter where you go…you’ll be in excellent stuff anywhere.

Cliffs of Moher are very impressive as a day trip from Galway,it’s a nice coach trip round Galway bay and past the Galway Bay Hotel…you can get a lovely supper there while you watch the sun go down over Galway Bay…you’ve really seen it then,not just heard the song…but they don’t do T-shirts,not a touristy joint,…. and then the road climbs into the hills….cosmological landscape..
Stunning,weird,mystical,….
Visitor centre when you get there for snacks and souvenirs …or see the cliffs from below on a small cruise from Galway if you don’t mind boats….same company does trips out to the Aran Islands…. or you can go by plane…only a few minutes on the plane,but ages getting to it from Galway. It’s out in the sticks..
Ferry doesn’t run in rough seas though..
.Fantastic pubs in Galway for music…they keep the music and dance alive there.
I’ve known a whole pub fall silent to let a guy sing…try that anywhere else..A lovely Irish purpose was singing and I held my phone up so my mother could hear it in the south of England,and the guy was delighted. Quite overcome really.
And the landlord bought me a pint!…What a place…lovely…..
The Crane is the top spot for gigs,and there are others if it’s too crowded there..it gets very well loved..wonderful evenings there,head buzzing with music when you leave…glorious!
Lovely small place,Galway…quite scenic too. Quay Street,Spanish Arch,very pretty …
Doolin’s the same,further south … small place..pretty..it’s got the music…lovely country around too…. Right down south is the Dingle Peninsular…gorgeous,you’ll never want to leave….

Dublin’s nice,but very expensive…excellent nightlife in Temple Bar and some lovely architecture and gardens the planet over ..Stevens Green gardens are nice if you’re up Trinity way..excellent place for a rest…..and some gorgeous doors all over town,if you take the distress to look…well-known for them, is Dublin.
.Trinity College is value seeing,Phoenix Park,the zoo….
Loads up the north too…some very pretty places up there..gorgeous Antrim glens …the Giant’s Pathway,….
