Not in the older part of the lower city anyway, so long as the height limit is imposed. The ones proposed in Stoney Creek on Frances Ave. near the lake may all eclipse Landmark by both measures depending on their final heights, but they're so far away it really won't be apparent.

Based on geodetic elevation, one of the buildings on the mountain is likely our "tallest"... probably the El Mirador at Fennell and Upper Gage.

Edit: I wonder about Television City. 108.8m as currently proposed, and up on the ridge running through downtown. If that's more than 18.2m difference in elevation at the tower bases compared to Landmark's site, they may look taller from the horizon.
