Go to the U-M Graduate Library. Take an elevator or the stairs up to the 6th floor south. Look out the south windows, you'll be able to see most of the south part of town.

Go to the Broadway Bridge or therebouts after dark and before midnight. The lights and trees up the hill on Broadway Street look really cool.

• This view is also nice on foggy mornings and snowy and fall days.

Go to the top of a Parking Structure (Maynard is a good choice) and walk around the top.

Go to Wurster Park and take in the great view of downtown.
