Hitler observing LW attack on Warsaw 25.09.30

I wonder may someone know, Hitler had come to Warsaw on 25.09.39 to observe Luftwaffe and artillery air attack on the city. It was his visitation among soldiers on the front line. I am wonder from which places in Warsaw he could observed German fire attack conducted joinly by LW + artillery.

There are two possibilites: Sluzev and second Okecie (there were some buildings with towers useful for this)? Maybe I am wrong and it was other place?

This place could be near the front line and in Polish memories was such incident: one of artillery commander had observed big German automobile column on 25.09, he asked his superior to get permission to open fire, the permission came to late.

Regards,
mw
