That one isn't residential at all! That's the cool part. A suburb with a large portion of its primary skyline being large office towers of 70 meters or more! Metrotown has 6 such office towers, with about 8 more between 35 and 50 meters.

^speaking of unusual vantages, my new home in Montreal came complete with one of the grittiest views of downtown I've ever laid my eyes upon. Just look at that foreground !

Great view leftimage, you will have a great view of the bell centre construction sites

I like this part of town, a smooth transition from the mile end, I'd say.

Your treatment of Hamilton's skyline is always impressive.

That second close-up was the part of your original panorama that drew my eye (plus the Ellen Fairclough Building). If the Connaught condo development goes through it will look a lot different.

The silver building in the foreground of the one Ottawa shot looks very Japan-ish to me. I wish the rest of the city had density like the CBD.

Silver building? You mean the Supreme Court? Or the ugly office clad in aluminum?

Ohhh okay, the aluminum one. Yeah it does like very 90s Japanese. Perhaps its the tower containing many of the East Asian embassies?
