Amazing stuff! I'm not sure it even needs any improvement at this point although i still wouldn't mind Le 1000 de la Gauchetière being another 50m taller.

I love Moxy Marriott so much! Such a great filler from a distance and I love the details up close:

The moxy goes to show that you can have eye catching and cool looking towers by keeping it simple and avoiding glass.

Nice to see fresh Montreal shots.

That Moxy Marriott looks very tall (accentuated by how slender the tower is, sort of like CIBC tower). 63 stories, right?

For a brief moment, I thought that Calgary shot was Montreal.

Nice to see some movement around Pacific Station in Vancouver. it was quite the wasteland when we visited in 2019.

Looks considerably heftier than London, despite being smaller.

Would be interesting to see what London would look like if downtown was bordering a lake or harbour.

One of the differences between the two is that Halifax is deliberately built around the harbour (port, military, transportation) while London has more of a manufacturing base tied to road and railway networks. Then there's the impact of the topography, Halifax being older, and the different regional flavour.

London is essentially Canada's version of a Midwest city. In some ways it's got some similarities to Winnipeg, but I am not sure the two get compared much.
