I'm surprised to see Vancouver in somebody's top ten list near the beginning of the thread. I think the skyline looks great at night, but in terms of special night lighting effects it seems to be lacking. It has had some nice additions this decade though and has a few more coming up soon such as what will be the glowing tiles of the Shangri-La (our new tallest u/c).

I thought I'd post a few pics of some of the individual night lighting components of our skyline since there is no angle from which all can be seen in one shot...

I guess those are the most prominent contributions to Vancouver's night lighting anyways. Plenty of room for improvement.
