Yeah I know. When I first saw the photo, I was like 'damn, that's one good skyline shot of Edmonton'. (ducks to avoid cinderblocks being thrown at my head by Edmonton forumers)

Regina has to have, hands down the best skyline of any city of comparable size, anywhere!

If things go well, either the spot between the old red building and the 1950s blue one or the part on the left near the dirty little building (our city bus terminal) will become a shiny new highrise in a couple years. The province will announce the location of the new court house later this month, and that is where the city wants to put it.

It's on the U of S campus I think... I don't know what building it is though... it appears SASKFTW narrowly beat me...

Here's one of Regina I took it last summer. Taken about 8km from the eastern edge of the city, near Pilot Butte

i'll say it again, Regina is really impressive.

i keep hearing about how its the "city that time forgot" from friends and family that have been there recently, but i think i may have to come and check it out.

Not sure why they would say that as Regina is currently ranked #1 in Canada for economic momentum. Regina (and the province) are currently booming despite the worldwide economic troubles.

Great panorama of the City of Kitchener from Chicopee Ski Hill. Downtown skyline is about 40% to the right.

Not sure why anyone bothered to take that. For such a big picture, there is very little to see.

Thats a great comment Man. Were you expecting to see something resembling downtown Toronto? Or Calgary? Or Vancouver? If you dont like KW just say so, otherwise explain yourself better.
