I've driven down that street roughly 10,000 times and don't think I've seen it look like that either. Looks much farther away with real eyes.

It's got well over 10K people per square kilometre (probably around 12-13K/km2). That's pretty dense, on par with a number of inner Toronto neighbourhoods.

Actually, there is space enough for hundreds more large towers in the core. There is a good bit under construction now out of the 130 or so underway in The 416. The older buildings in those photos can be restored Massey Tower/Five Condo style into the base of ever larger and taller buildings.

Why would you compare Canada's economic capital and one of the biggest cities/metros in North America with Montreal? Apples and oranges.

Yeah, i don't know about that. It looks like a pumped up Mississauga to me. I"ll take quality over quantity. Montreal has that one beat.
