This view is from the Coast Hotel in Long Beach, CA. The hotel has a great view of Downtown Long Beach across the bay, and is walking distance to the famous Queen Mary. Vistors can even catch a water taxi that reaches all the popular Long Beach tourist destinations. The large white dome next to the Queen Mary was originally built to store Howard Hughes's H-4 airplane (aka the Spruce Goose), and is now used for various functions, often for film making as a sound stage.
