The Great Canadian Skyline thread for CMAs 1 million and under

[someone123]

Yeah, some of the viewplanes have definitely produced good results, particularly the one preserving the view of the Town Clock and Citadel, the prominence of the Dominion Building, etc.

What I don't like is the southern viewplane's effect on buildings there. One particularly perverse side-effect of that viewplane is that the owners of the NFB building would have had to get a variance to rebuild the 1800's tower on their building, so they just decided to skip it in the restoration project. It is a bit silly to come up with height limits that are so restrictive that even 100+ year old heritage buildings would violate them.

When I get some more time I'd like to add the Roy Building and Discovery Centre. Demo work is apparently being done for the Roy right now, so it is at the same stage as the Bank of Canada redevelopment.
