Cool pic. Looks like an amazing version of a combined SimCity 4 & 5 super game.

Here's one of my favorites is this one of the Vancouver skyline:

I hope he fixes it.

As both a photographer and long-time poster to this forum, the large majority of posters here are very good about properly crediting photos, and if not, they are usually called out very quickly by the mods. I am sure it was just an oversight on Rico's part.

Be sure to check out the threads in the photography forums, there are a lot of fantastic photographers on this site who appreciate all styles of photography, not just the urban stuff:

People wouldn't be so keen to get rid of industry if it were their jobs people wanted to eliminate. Is everyone supposed to work a white collar job so as not to offend someone's sense of aesthetics?

TownGuy · #**3968** Posted **Jan 31, 2015, 11:49 PM**

White collar workers won't be immune either with the rise of AI.

Move them? You really think they're moveable?

It's surrounded by historic university buildings, so never.

Some incredible Vancouver shots and especially that last Toronto shot by monkeyronin...wow... is it time we start thinking of the Toronto skyline as a north to south downtown rather than a west to east downtown?

That's how I've always thought about it!

Those who own these "ugly" silos would probably disagree extremely strongly that they "should" "destroy" them.

Let's concentrate on making Yonge Street and the Entertainment District nice big and dark skyscraper canyons. There is a lot of space to fill there.
