I love TO's two tallest towers (especially Scotiabank Place or whatever it's called), but I HATE the other tall one with the ball thing on top.

That is incredibly impressive! If any Americans ever say Canada is only a vast tundra with igloos I will reffer them to this picture

That one's my favorite of the set for sure.

It's spread out since many of those buildings aren't even downtown, just the cluster in the centre. KW has a lot of random apartment buildings scattered throughout the urban area.

For the amount of highrise residential in DT Vancouver, they really need some more tall office buildings. Where do all these people work? Out in the 'burbs? Love the aerial shots though, wicked density.

I think I've said it before, but this:

should be a permanent fixture of the waterfront.

Yeah Whitehorse has a small one, but there's a bylaw that you can't build over 4 stories. First two pics are mine, the log skyscraper pic is from Flickr (D.C.Elliott). This is just one of those historic things, don't think that it's quintessential Whitehorse architecture, haha.
