Do we ever see the roof of the Hyperion?

There's a picture and more info on the actual buidling used, here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperion_Hotel

Oooh thank you! Although the roof looks awfully pointy... Bother.

The only roof shots I remember were of other buildings. However the roof is flat, I suspect it's only the edges that are tiled. Take a look here.

Here's a screencap from Google Earth. I can zoom in closer, if you need.

Oooh what fun pictures! Thank you! Thanks to magista I found out that the roof *is* flat, and your pictures show a little wall at the back (with a metal barrier - might have to change that slightly...).

This is so neat! I have some roof scenes planned in 'Divided Destiny' and now I can make them work beautifully! :)

THANK YOU! We actually *have* Google Earth, which I had completely forgotten about, so I'm very happy now. The roof should work very nicely indeed in the scenes I'm contemplating. :)
