It's really making an impact. Someone on the Ottawa forum said they could see it from Chelsea, QC as well.

Yonge almost looks like a canal here. Or like a commercial zipper holding the residential fabric together.

Is it just me or is it a little strange the C.N Tower lit up green on Monday to commemorate Dartmouth Colleges 250th anniversary?

Yes, how fitting that the bottom of that zipper makes way for a rather gearthy communications tower attached to an equally large nutsack with the world's first retractable roof

This pic actually reminds me of the view north up Center Street from the Calgary tower, I think it's the slight bend in the road that does it.

A few from tjhfx:



It looks like there are 3 towers in ascending order of height on the left but the middle one is actually the tallest.

No, I find it odd as well. I wonder if the University of New Brunswick will get the same treatment when it turns 250 in 2035?
