vs. similar view around 2012.

This is an imperfect comparison because a few significant projects have been completed since 2012 such as the James Flahery Building at 90 Elgin, the National Arts Centre expansion and the new glass domed House of Commons within the West Block courtyard.

In all honesty, as an overall skyline view it hasn't really changed *that* much in over 50 years. Even if I take into consideration buildings that have been added since 2012.

Also note that the article says that those apartments being torn down (Roxborough?) will be replaced by some kind of museum. But a museum was never built on that site - it's now Confederation Park I believe, which covers the entire space between Elgin St. and the Rideau Canal.
