I travel quite a bit and have been to large Asian cities. It seems to me that Toronto and Canadian cities in general are really bulking up at transit stations with clusters of towers far from the core. This is what you see when you fly over Shanghai or more recently when I visited Istanbul. I really don't see this in US cities at all, except for maybe L.A and NY (think Brooklyn). They are more cluster of towers downtown followed by low rise for kilometres out side the downtown areas. Interesting to see Canada go a different direction on urbanism than the U.S.

This may be my second favourite view of Toronto now...I took this yesterday whilst on the Gibraltar Point side of the Toronto Islands.

I’ve been waiting for a Winny skyline shot from this famous angle with the new tallest - thanks.
Things are filling in on the left side there too.

Booming Yorkville skyline. Check out the see through bones of Foster + Partners' 50 Scollard rising near the right below.

Is there some kind of law that states that Waterloo buildings need to be as functional as possible and absolutely bereft of beautifying details?
