And that leads onto something else - if you choose to look on the 'apartment window' shot as being the WHOLE 'rounded end' of the top section of the building seen in the preceding shot....then the top section is only as wide as the 'apartment' is (very narrow in other words), and the position of the tall, fat building and platform is SIDE-onwards to the whole of Leia's building....
but if you look on the 'apartment window' shot as being positioned at the far edge of a WIDE top section, then the position of the tall, fat building and platform is facing DIRECTLY towards the end of Leia's building, and matches the positioning seen at the end of the preceding 'fly-by' shot too. (I REALLY like the idea of something along the lines of the rough mock-up that Davnes007 came up with at the end of the previous page by the way, but again it's tricky because of the 'camera-movement' I suppose)
Also, shouldn't the single 'wine'-coloured stripe either side of the 'apartment window' area be covering the strips just above and below it as well, to better tie-in with the fatter 'wine'-coloured stripe seen in the preceding shot? Especially since it was seemingly intended to represent the same structure? It's just another example of sloppy continuity it seems.
Found a moment to chip in on this one - this was something I intended to come back on sometime, since my comments above from part of a long post about this whole scene on page 295.
Since then, it seems that Adywan definately plans to keep the SE 'city fly-through' by the cloud car, which I really liked too. However, I have no idea what the plans are for the very end of the SE shot (before it cuts to Leia pacing in the window), where there seems to be continuity problems with where the buildings are situated to each other.
Anyway, vaderios is correct about how the 'cloud-car platform' seems to be at the wrong height (in relation to Leia's building) between the 2 shots where it's seen in the overall scene. Having studied the scene in motion a few times a while back, what I'd intended to suggest was that it seems that with the current layout between the 2 shots, if you watch the end of the SE shot (seen in vaderios MIDDLE photo above), it can be conceivably be imagined that there is ANOTHER similar 'tall, fat building' OFFSCREEN to the right of the frame too! (At the SIDE of the SE building that Leia seems to be at the front-top of, according to where the cloud-car seems to fly between the 2 shots now)
To really sell this, one of the shots would have to have the 'rising cloud-car' and 'cloud-car platform' totally removed , and there could even be a little tweaking of colour to one of the shots, so that these now 2 DIFFERENT 'tall, fat buildings' looked even less identical if necessary.
Just an alternative thought, although Adywan might have changed a few things here already.
