Montreal's really developing quite the table-top now. I do wish PVM and Bourse were >200m.

That doesn't look like a table-top to me. Maybe a little...I do think a 220m would do wonders for the skyline though.

Its definitely not "Vancouver viewed from the harbour" table top, but I do think these new additions are exactly what Montreal needs.

Not currently, but all those planned towers, if completed, would produce that kind of effect. It's all around the same height.

Yeah but downtown Montreal sits on a slope so they wont appear to be the same height. For example, square phillips will look taller than the national bank tower even though they're both 200m because the latter is being built on higher ground.

^...and it still has two significant towers to go in Phase 2 (market dependant) along with Phase 3's lands to the north for 4-5000 people.
