Yes, the skyline behind the hydro towers is Mississauga City Centre. And behind the warehouses, you can also see two different Brampton skylines, the first photo being of Brampton's downtown plus some buildings further east along the Queen corridor. The buildings u/c sandwiched between the old slab towers is located south of Brampton's downtown, around the Shoppers World mall. This will be terminus of the Hurontario LRT, set to be completed next year. It is a skyline that will grow a lot and keep an eye in the coming years.
The LRT was actually originally supposed go further north and terminate at the downtown, but unfortunately the city opposed LRT in their downtown. You can see the downtown skyline is already very small compared to Shoppers World. It also means the LRT will not connect to the GO Train which serves the downtown, or connect to the buses along Queen Street, which is Brampton busiest transit corridor.
These pictures do not show Brampton's biggest skyline, located further east along Queen, around the Bramalea City Centre mall.
Behind Brampton in the far distance you can see the Niagara Escarpment.
