He probably thought you were talking about the Quad Windsor project, as I was.

Can't go wrong with the view from Crescent Heights, probably one of the best in the country.

What if you want a view of Montreal? It can't possibly be the best view in the country for that.

My favourite skyline view in the country (that I've personally seen) remains Toronto on the elevated ramp connecting the Gardiner to the 427. Plus looking 180 degrees gives an epic view of Mississauga's skyline. Too bad you can't stop there to take photos.

Look at all those parking lots in downtown Windsor. Plenty of potential for the future I guess.

That's what I was thinking as well - plenty of attributes to work with and lots of potential for Windsor. It's so rare to see photos of it, it's one Canadian city I'm not very familiar with at all (I'm ashamed to say)
