Don't know what's a lot but the Portlands in Toronto receive the cargo ships. I'd imagine at some time in history Port Credit in Mississauga may have. There is an old one there now acting as a break wall.

Petro Canada Pier in Oakville and the pier in Mississauga receive some ships. But not cargo in the sense of carrying cargo containers

Nowhere on the Great Lakes gets actual container ships. The width and draft limitations will never allow it to make sense over rail.

Looking out my window though there's 3 bulk cargo ships docked in the port lands that have been here all winter.

Whatever it is, it's equally as bleak and unappealing as the Calgary photo you posted above.

Nice slice from the market area Drew. Thx.

Market Square (foreground) looking positively historic lol.

Took many pics thru that building view corridor to St. James Cathedral.

Kudos to Franklin McKay for the shot.

Love the big city vibe/clutter (even with no core or southcore towers).

Sp!re (left of St. James spire) remains one of aA's best ... few condo "boxes" match it.

All of Canada's cities pay homage to our Eastern European immigrants through vernacular architecture.
