Toronto does clouds very well.

Not the prettiest shots on these gloomy spring days, but they are recent, possibly last weekend, all from LeDroit, the local Francophone newpaper (well, not a paper anymore). They seem to be the only local media to include recent pictures.

Hull is really beefing up it would seem.

Some of the most interesting angles are from the Quebec side.

On that same street, three major proposals are coming up;

1. Around the red brick convent on the park side (seen on the bottom two images images), the NCC and Civic Developments will propose a project that includes 6/19/29 floor buildings, with 600 units and 200 hotel rooms, preserving the original part of the convent: https://skyscraperpage.com/forum/showthread.php?t=215106

2. In a block across the park, one block south from VIU (the two glass towers in the images), Okto- and Theia partners (who started Zibi as Windmill before splitting with them and later selling Zibi to Dream), are proposing 21/26/30 floors and 950 units, preserving a couple "Maisons Allumettes": https://skyscraperpage.com/forum/showthread.php?t=264030

3. Across the Museum of Civilization, there's a 9 floor red brick Four Points hotel and a 5 storey rectory. The owner Brigil wants to add two towers of 30 and 45 floors. The project would include 1,000 units and 200 hotel rooms: https://skyscraperpage.com/forum/showthread.php?t=226137&page=3

Unfortunately, locals and the local Councillor, who's part of the majority Action Gatineau Party, are opposed to such height, not realizing this means more green space, heritage preservation and set-backs from the streets.

Toronto looking great. Is there anything planned to the west of the CN Tower? I can't recall how much land is available on that side.

I had no real idea about the makeup of Regina's core besides those mirror angled twin towers. Nice aerial shots. Lots of cool historic stock. I also really love that wavy mid century Sask Power building.

Saskatoon usually steals the spotlight.

Same here, That's why I posted the larger images. I didn't realize Regina spread out the way it does. It looks more urban than I knew.
