Here are a bunch of Vancouver skyline shots I took 2 days ago walking around Stanley Park:












And here are two I took of North Vancouver's skyline on the same walk:






And for fun, the ports on the same walk:

As much as I'm loving all the construction in Toronto I find it a shame that Royal Bank Plaza (one of my favorites) is losing it's prominance from the classic lakefront view. It appears it will soon be obliterated alltogether.

Some great Vancouver and Toronto pictures with the ocean and lake!

Keeping with the skyline/water theme, a few of Victoria:

Thou art correct!

RBC at Waterpark Place will finish off the view of RBC Plaza by next year.

^ No. Nexen was completed as the "Nova" building in 1982 I believe.

The pictures I took didn't show it, but I could end up seeing a little bit of downtown Calgary from the top of chinamans peak in Canmore. I don't recall seeing it on past climbs...it may have been an exceptionally clear day. The only thing that was really visible was the top of the Bow.

As to where these were taken...

My first guess is Vantage Pointe,
2nd is Nova
3rd is Stella
4th Luna
