The flip side of that is the tremendous growth in Toronto. Toronto turned on the jets and its still rocketing up. Hopefully Calgary can follow in Toronto's footsteps. We're really blessed here in Canada. Most countries are lucky to have 1 great skyline. We have 4 with Edmonton showing signs that it wants to make it 5.

Using the format that Travis was using (66 over 150 meters for Toronto built/uc/approved-likely to start soon), Calgary has 20. 15 complete, 2 UC, and 3 approved/likely to begin soon. It might be 4 approved, as the details of Kings on Fourth are quite fuzzy.
The breakdown for Toronto is - 33 complete, 25 UC, and 8 approved/likely to begin soon, for the total of 66.
Quite amazing. There has been talk of a slowdown in Toronto recently, I think any city in the world would be lucky to have such a ultra-supercharged "slowdown"
Here's a pretty pic of Edmonton!
