Thanks you! The folks that took the photos really deserve the credit though, I just found them.

Yeah thanks for those.

Stantec would have looked like a beauty if it had subtle rounded corners. Not as pronounced as JW...Just my 2 cents

I had a chance to check the funicular today. It was reasonably busy.

I second that. The north bank needs some glass and modernism. It's very 'precast'....

For a city that is increasingly photogenic we sure don't see enough of it in the media. At least I'm doing my best to write some screenplays taking advantage of these locations and maybe one day coming to a streaming service near you... Can't wait see a whole new round of skyline shots this spring with more Ice District in 'em!

They should keep those lights on the light polls year round.

New elevator/mech penthouse cladding on the left (silver & very reflective) versus the soon to be completed older brown/bronze to the right.

Wow! Those lights are pretty nice...year round sounds great, do the colours change colour? (It wouldn't be a bad thing if they didn't...but would be interesting if they did)
