Too far to walk, Pot smoking bongo players are lazy so they stick to Prince's Island and Tompkins park lol. Plus the latter is closer to munchies, Nose Hill is kinda isolated.

no,., actually he is correct if what he is saying is that, the skyline gradually slopes as it goes westward.

Nice. Sometimes understated skyscraper lighting schemes are better.

As far as CBD skyline goes, Calgary is pretty much on par with Toronto. (Yes TO is still on top with density and height.) Great Calgary shot.

It's a matter of personal preference. I don't necessarily agree with him, but I don't think Calgary is that far behind and I can certainly understand why someone would prefer it over TO.
