The municipal auditorium can be seen near the shore in the middle of the U. At left, a rollercoaster is visible on a small amusement pier. Many tall buildings can be seen near the waterfront, while hundreds of smaller buildings cover the ground in the background. The calm water of the ocean can be seen in the foreground.
