Qu'est ce vous pensez que la ville va faire avec ces silos hideux ?

I like those silos in Montreal. They help the city look industrial.

I love that sunset shot. The CN tower has such elegance compared to most similar towers.

I love how L Tower looks like a giant mythological sailbait from far away. It's stunning.

^ I was impressed by both of those TO shots. I've never been a huge fan of how the CN tower looks in the skyline, but it looks great in those shots.

I agree with you SHH. I really don't like all these observational towers except the CN tower which is, as you said, elegant. One other notable exception: the Canton Tower in Guangzhou, but that one is not the bulge-on-a-stick type of tower either...

I already posted this in the "Post pictures of your city" thread but I think it deserves a re-post in here as it's one of the best Vancouver skyline shots I've ever seen:

No worries! I don't think that anyone is going to go back 200+ pages to find it. I suppose reposts are okay if they're 100 pages old (any mods want to chime in on this?)?

I'd like to see some more east coast and north cities on here just for a refreshing change .

Haha exactly. I know I'm guilty of it as well. Sometimes after only a couple dozen pages. I have a shit memory. Lately I've been trying to keep a list of shots I've posted

There's actually a thread specifically for the skylines of cities (metro areas) under 1 million, there are lots of pics of them there. Though it is perfectly fine for them to be posted here as well.
