Looks like 2 St. Clair.

I love the views from the buildings along the south side of St. Clair. I was at the Desjardins building (95 St. Clair) a couple months ago and we went up to the roof to check it out. The cemetery and single-family homes of Summerhill pretty much guarantee your undisturbed south-facing views for the foreseeable future.

Correct.

Wife won a $100 gift certificate from radio station. One of those contests where they play one second of the song and you call in and guess it. Won twice in the space of a month, which is how long you have to wait to win again.

I picked it up for her since I could easily hop on the TTC at work at St Andrews and get off at St. Clair.

Toronto's bagels suck so you don't apply. Still, the street in the photo should be fairly obviously to anyone following this thread.

That nighttime Toronto one above Union almost reminds me of Chicago and Lakeshore going north.

Western end of the skyline looking back east towards Downtown and the southern top of bank skyline.

That is a great Calgary shot, which really flatters the skyline.

After decades of slow change, Montreal's skyline has changed markedly in the past 5 years.

A lot has happened in the last five years, but other areas of downtown now need their share of high-rise development. The Banque Nationale tower and the adjacent mixed-use building are good news in this regard, they will beef out the central/east end of the skyline.
