Most iconic building in your city
Decided on this new thread because of an interesting discussion in the skyline thread. I am not going define what makes a building iconic because it can vary so much for so many but I do not necessarily think it has to be the tallest or largest - IMO it needs to stand out, be memorable, be postcard worthy on it's own.
That said, I would dare say that Calgary's most iconic building would be the Saddledome. Sure we have the Bow and soon TELUS Sky but most postcards will include a view of downtown with the Saddledome in the forefront. Personally I quite like the Bankers Hall twins but most tourists that have been to Calgary and have toured around the city a bit would probably recall the Saddledome before anything else.
