For it's size Hamilton doesn't have that weak of a skyline. It's behind Winnipeg, but it's ahead of Quebec City I'd say. It also has more highrises than either of them in it's metro.

As for new condos, there's three projects downtown set to make a serious difference. The previously mentioned Vranich and Connaught efforts, plus another 30 story condo proposal on James south. I think mid-rises would do more to fix the city though, filling in the rather excess parking lots.
