I mean tourists don't come for geometric shapes and steel and glass - every city has that - they come for the craftsmanship - heck that's half of hamilton's appeal, and why movies are shot here, because of all the old architecture. That style attracts tourists... Imo the William Thomas building - a combination of old and new is one of the best bets. Glass buildings look dated after a while.
And yes I realize that's where the money is, but STILL! Lol..
hmm..

Ah. They are basically condo mansions. Looking at the floor plans is unbelievable!
I must say the opulence is dizzying!
