I took this today of Mississauga, looking east. I wish I had my DSLR to capture this better.

Funny how many new towers got clustered together on Champagne Street in Ottawa's Little Italy, considering the cluster is surrounded by giant parking lots.

Is that cluster of 3 buildings actually 3 different buildings or are they one building designed to look like 3 separate buildings? They’re so close together it looks like you could reach out your window and slap your neighbour across the face.

It's actually four buildings, as the yellow brick building has a twin that's hiding behind the middle building.

/\ So much changes in the past 15 years. This angle used to be underwhelming, now it looks rather impressive.

Meanwhile, the little skyline of Nun's Island is growing slowly but surely...

You would never now Mississauga is a suburb. Same could be said for the suburban Skytrain clusters.

Yup, two sets of two buildings, There are two shorter buildings behind those (one visible). Looks tight, but it's still better than Rideau with a wall of 300 foot towers.

From hoggytime on Skyrise. Little Italy, with the Dow's Lake Towers behind the camera.

This video shows how green Toronto is from the 401 south to the lake.

There's a 12 story building in the frame and a brand new 14 story building behind the cluster as well. Ottawa loves to build dozens of squat ugly little tabletop skylines and walls all over the metro.

Interesting when viewing the skyline from the west the IBM tower, which is now the 6-7th tallest building seems like the tallest.

I love how well the tall recent additions to the skyline (Banque Nationale, Victoria sur la Parc, and Maestria) have been filling in the skyline. I am looking forward to seeing 900 Saint-Jacques and 1 Square Philips finish up too.

I might get roasted for this, but by this angle, it seems that Montreal has become the new table top skyline of Canada.
