Here's some more of Mississauga. I'd post in this thread more often but I end up not doing so because it doesn't seem to generate much interest. Also, almost every time Mississauga gets brought up in this forum, the conversation usually becomes counterproductive and devolves into people just talking about how awful it is as a city.
I've also been working on a Windsor/Detroit future skyline in this same style. Unfortunately it will not be even remotely as interesting for a while until more development happens down here.
That's great work man! Post all you want, screw the jerks.

100% agree!! thanks for posting..haters will hate, but there's no denying that skyline will be one of the better ones in Canada in the not so distant future. Great job!
Those building enclosing the Gardiner look pretty cool... and about 400m tall! Put one of those in the financial district. They're slim enough that one should fit in the space occupied by the FCP or Exchange tower podium. The buildings that are built on the shoreline above the concrete silos look amazing as sculptural items but I'm not sure of their practicality.

What I'd really like is to see a supertall replace the rather squat 33 Yonge building which i've never cared for. Not my favourite example of 90s style pomo I'm afraid.

Here is the future skyline of Niagara Falls! I started working on this earlier this week. I got inspired to do this by the emergence of the new 6605 Stanley proposal. Everything currently proposed along the strip is poised to drastically alter the skyline. Even if one just gets built, it's going to beef up the skyline by a great order of magnitude.
The two towers by the bridge are currently a stale proposal, but I figured I would include them anyway. I am also missing the revived Loretto proposal from these, but I figured I would wait, as they are currently under a redesign.

A nice glimpse into what Toronto might look like when the skyline finally catches up to the CN Tower. Ice sheets in Lake Ontario might be the only thing in that depiction that's unrealistic.
