That first van one is cool. But it shows the 60s crappy single family homes that are very common

Seriously though, I like the McIntyre medical. It just works from so many angles for me.

From the ground it looks ok. But from the mountain it looks overly conspicuous, brutalist, and incongruent with the rest of the view.

It's not that bad from that angle. I hate it, hate the style... but it's coherent, makes sense. It's a "pretty" example of that style.

Beautiful. For me, this timeless image captures the exact essence of winter in the big city. I love the effect of the snowflakes around the lights.

Edit: Just saw your post, Cold. Must be an Edmonton thing.

I like the way Winnipeg looks in the winter, when the surface lots and potholes are covered in snow

Second last WPG one actually made me happier inside.

Absolutely gorgeous Winnipeg shots!

[Beedok]

Looking good. I think all cities have better skylines in winter, but then again I like winter.

[Rico Rommheim]

Downtown Winnipeg looking mighty fine in this thread lately.

Can't get enough of the exchange district.
