This is a great shot, which shows the CIBC in all its glory. There's now a legitimate canyon rising along R-L boulevard. A couple more towers along the western end of the street (I'm looking at the VA building at Crescent, and the empty lot next to the former maritime hotel on Guy.

Is that Niagara Falls over above Stoney Creek? Or is that just some apartment buidlings? It looks pretty far.

Love that pic of Montreal.

The Calgary Peace Bridge is a wonderful piece of architecture.

Yep, you see Skylon Tower, Seneca casino and Hilton Hotel. That's Tim Hortons Field in the foreground.

Thought so. I just wasn't sure if St. Catherines could potentially be in the way. It just looks so close.

I've always really liked that building across the street from the Marriott.

Nice POV shot of La Cathédrale where my wife was confirmed by the then-Cardinal Turcotte. He was a very nice man, sad to hear of his passing last year.

He was commenting on two very clear images depicting the readily visible skyline of Quebec City, I'm pretty sure it was a joke.

Some forumers on here have previously said Qc has "no skyline". This was my response to this.

Chill.
