Skyscrapers in Chicago:

These images can be used to adjust the angle of viewing up and down. They can both look up at the skyscraper and look down at the roof of the street that participates in the street shooting. Of course, these roofs are not very nice. If you adjust them properly, you can hide the roof and directly see the ground.

 

Finally, it is worth mentioning that face blur technology has been applied to all portraits. Google Street View can be accessed either through Google Earth or through the Google Maps API.
