Edmonton should intensify the developments that do exist.

Yep, Quarters does look pretty sad in that shot. We're working on it...

Wow, very cool angle. Helps me understand the geography of QC, since I've never been there in person.

WOW

Had no idea the other side looked like that

Thank you guys.
Because of its geography, Québec city is hard to catch in one shoot !
The only way to see it is from the airs.

That's a fabulous pic of Quebec city.

I always found the geography of Quebec City was hard to seize. Just the fact it has a old town, a downtown and a CBD all distinct from each other is unheard of in Canada.

Nice view of Île d'Orléans.

For me, all of it is considered as ''Downtown''

Per example, St-Roch in lower-town looks only separated from the parliament hill for a geography matter.

Ma grand-mère habite à Québec juste à côté des Plaines.

That's exactly where I live ! (Quartier Montcalm) The plains are just a 5min walk from my home and I enjoy it as much as I can !
