Montreal's skyline, like the city itself, has tons of character.

Yes sir, it is atrocious. Thankfully, almost every bit of parking in that picture has something proposed or under construction currently. That picture is 7 years old now as well.

I often feel that it is also the picture quality, faded colors, high grain, etc... that also make such images look bad.

That may play a part in making it look bad, but that is easily the most blighted area of downtown. I mean the Stampede grounds look as bad as that, but at least they serve a purpose looking bad. I'm just glad to say that the situation is being remedied!

An oldie from Calgary, picture credits are on picture. Possibly early 70's?

Landmark place will lose it's lonely position apart from the skyline. It'll be like the CN Tower getting hidden by new condos.
