That looks like they took it about two or three weeks ago, the crane for 30 Erskine is still on at the left. Nice photo, the lighting worked out.....I was thinking this would be a Yonge and Sheppard to downtown kind of shot.

That's totally impressive... and to think there are another 2 dozen tall towers going up plus lots of shorter ones too.

Every skyline has something to offer. Even a certified skyscraper fanboy like myself can appreciate the subtleties of the Montreal and Quebec City skylines and wish for something like that here.

That shot of Quebec City also hides the brutalist Marie-Guyart (Complexe G).

Oops, wrong image. Complexe G is nonetheless hidden in the Quebec City photo too!

Nice Koops!

Her are some original pics of my own. These are from when I was in Vancouver in August.

I always enjoy riding around on the Skytrain and getting shots of the various suburb skylines.

First up is my favorite suburban skyline, Metrotown. These are taken from the Brentwood Skytrain Station.
