Preview of the Inauguration Site

On Wednesday I had a chance to walk over to the U.S. Capitol and take photos of the grounds. As you'll see, the podium is still being constructed - and the areas that are said to be ticketed span quite farther than they have in the past.

There are a good assortment of views here, including the view from First Street and Third Street (both of which are said to be tickets areas). You can click here to get an idea of what Barack Obama's view will be like from the podium. There are lots of photos on staging and construction - for the full album, click here.

Wednesday was also the day that grounds workers were putting up the Capitol Christmas Tree.
