Quite possibly one of my fav Toronto shots in this thread. Awesome, I love it.

That is an amazing shot!

Thanks for posting it, Toronto is finally getting some decent density.

I have a stupid question - What is happening to the Indy race when the airport lands start being redeveloped in the next few years?

Coldrsx · #**1745** Posted **Jul 18, 2012, 8:16 PM**

Option 1.

Find a new track be it a road course or the new Castrol road track being paved as we speak just south of Edmonton.

Option 2.

Lose the race, likely to Vancouver or Quebec (Mt. Tremblanc or Trois Rivieres)

WOW , Amazing view of Ottawa !

davidivivid · #**1749** Posted **Jul 20, 2012, 1:22 AM**

Yep, never seen Ottawa from that angle!

If it wasn't for the parliament buildings I wouldn't even have known that was Ottawa. Awesome shot!

Option 3: The race track is kept at the airport. Developments are phased in around in... leaving the track as the last phase of redevelopment. After that, we probably lose the race if we don't find a road race for it. Don't think it will do very well with Colds option 1.

^ yes liking that shot of Ottawa..No height, but great density and a bit of a belt thing going on..All in all, not bad for a relatively small city...Great shot of T.O above as well.

Hybrid247 · #**1754** Posted **Jul 20, 2012, 3:29 AM**

It's really a shame Ottawa imposes ridiculous height restrictions. I'm sure if it weren't for that, the skyline would be quite different and not so stubby. Ottawa does have great density though and it shows at street level with the canyon effect.

Capital city or not, Ottawa looks great.

roccerfeller · #**1757** Posted **Jul 20, 2012, 1:29 PM**

That's a wicked Ottawa (& Gatineau

) shot!!

Great density in that downtown core.

Ah. I see. Thanks.
