Many places I have visited, I really had to struggle to find a good view point. Calgary just has them all over the place and they are fully accessible to the public. Plus, when you see photos of the Calgary skyline, it is always from a different angle. I like how they kept all of these view point accessible to all instead of building homes right to the edge of the hill.

Try to find a good place to photograph the Minneapolis skyline. I tried when I was there and it seemed like all of the view points were sold off to people.
Regina, hard to find a great View
Winnipeg, LIKE OMG. So hard to find a good one.
Montreal, the photos are either form the water or mount royal
Toronto............hmmmmmmm.........It is always from the same water view or from a high rise.

It is just because ALL of the land around Calgary's downtown is higher than downtown. You go uphill from downtown in all four directions.

Los angeles has quite a few viewpoints as they are in a valley as well.

I cant speak of many other cities out east, havent been to any of them except Toronto.
