Strategy for "seeing" a 2nd floor view b4 building

[hpp4me]

Thanks for the ideas. The problem with the car hood suggestion is that I can't get it onto the property (we can't even walk in...too much brush), and the house site is probably 6 feet above the street level where the car would be parked.

We live on the mainland and don't know any neighbor, so borrowing a frame ladder might be a problem.

3rd Ave is flat; there really is no incline that I can recall noticing.

I think the last suggestion is the one that works best! I am hoping that someone on 3rd (or even 4th) could go upstairs and snap a photo to give us a sense of what we would see.

As for your location question, we're very close to Paradise and 3rd.

Thanks for taking the time to reply!
