The Great Canadian Skyline Thread! II - Page 468

I'm excited to see what our downtown looks like from this angle in 2017... TDC will stand in between the 1000 and the 1250, while Icône will stand between the 1259 and the CIBC... These holes will finally be filled!

I would like to see some taller structures creep into Griffintown. As we can tell from this image, 20 floors of residential has little effect. I'd like to see some in the 40+ floor range.

Here's a GIF of cruise ships docking in Victoria with some of the skyline in view - http://i.imgur.com/QVTXG7V

I post it as a link because it's nearly 10 megs!

If you look closely you'll see the bridge go up and down

I'm not even sure who to give credit to but it's a nice view of Vancouver.

Will sure be nice when the Stampede gets around to building something on those lots they cleared.

Great photos from across the country everybody!

My favourite view of Ottawa is looking upriver from about this vantage point, more or less crosswind landing leg. We fly out of Rockcliffe airport. The buildings silhouetted by the sun reflecting off the ice on the Ottawa river, well beyond the runway, are in Hull (now Gatineau), across from Parliament Hill.

Wow, looks freezing! Almost as though it's much farther north than it actually is.

^ The view from Ridge Rd. just above New Mountain Rd.

When it's not hazy the skyline is more visible. But a few taller towers breaking the plane of the escarpment would certainly make a difference.

It looks like a jungle. Especially after the winter-y ottawa pic.

The last pic really shows how huge Toronto is. Many people would mistake that cluster around St Michael's College to be part of North York north of the 401 on first glance.

When I look at the first shot Im so grateful to see the — end of winter lol.

The first picture really shows how much Toronto's skyline needs a moratorium on blue/green glass towers to break the monotony.
