nice never before seen pics of Saskatoon!.. I wish the tallest river landing tower at least reached the height of the top of the crane that sits atop it... just to break the table top effect going on.

It's amazing how many of these commie blocks dot the skylines of every Canadian city. Almost as iconic as the Railway Hotels.

Great Montreal pic - unreal how different cibc looks without the spire.
Those Saskatoon pics are amazing, completely changed my perspective of the skyline for the better.

Wow, thats quite the beautiful hospital in the foreground of that last photo. Love the way it's designed and established in its location. Beautiful image, heck the last couple Montreal compilations have been spectacular.

That's actually the Université de Montréal's main campus on the north flank (opposite side from downtown) of Mount Royal.

If we're talking about the same photo.

I like how this pic shows the spot where the Ville-Marie expressway goes underground as it reaches the core.

Woops, mybad. I seen parallels to a few hospital designs and assumed as much. That's an impressive campus nonetheless.

Um no I'm not kidding. I think the photo is perfect.

And yes, the missing antenna is disturbing.

Tunney's skyline. The poster is referencing 99 Parkdale, the tallest building centre-right.

I love the design of this tower, particularly the roof detail. It makes a positive impact from many areas along the parkway. I actually think it is too bad there is going to be a twin as it looks great as a standalone currently.
