The Bay Park Centre will look great when built just right of those Harbour Plaza towers. It'll fill out that area well.

I love the depth of the cityscape in this photo. The towers in the background make the city look gigantic.

Not sure if posted already, but it's an uncommon angle of Calgary.

Ditto, the cleaned up pocture's colors seem a bit odd.

That makes Ottawa look tiny.

Beautiful shot of Ottawa!

The two towers surrounded by the experimental farm is quirky and something I have never noticed before.

How about some Toronto hate from someone who gets accused of being an unabashed Toronto fan?

I've never liked this angle. Seems to emphasize Toronto's lack of tall prewar skyscrapers to detrimental effect.

And this one shows how awful the street-level is just east of Yonge, south of Bloor and down to about Carlton. Too much of the fine-grained Victorian stuff got razed in the 60s and 70s for commie blocks. Church and Wellesley is busy, but it's still a grim mish-mash. You have to get over to Parliament south of St. Jamestown before the classic Toronto charm kicks in again.

Harrumph.
