That's a nice shot of Hamilton. You can see the new hospital.

No, it's a brand new hospital, Margaret and Charles Juravinski Centre for Integrated Healthcare.

Nice to see an aerial shot of the Hammer, really puts things into perspective, would love to see another shot even further out with all the institutions/heavy industry in the pic.

You can see all of Stelco and half of Dofasco in the upper right.

The industrial zone starts along the shoreline just to the right of the twin apartment buildings on the harbourfront and extends all the way past the right side of the image.

I'm being a little bit facetious, but I still maintain that industrial cities like Hamilton should be given Skyscraper points for their plants..Defasco= One 50 story glass skyscraper etc.

Same with old chateau's a la' Quebec city ..How many skyscraper points are the Chateau Frontenac, The Royal York in Toronto or Chateau Laurier in Ottawa worth?

^ Just think of how much shorter it would be to say ''yes'' or ''no''.

Ok, it's on the mountain. The picture made the terrain look so flat, I couldn't tell.
