Just so happened to be in Toronto over the Christmas weekend visiting family and friends... (Thanks, Megabus!) The following are some photos I took the other day while I was on a patented Miketoronto tour of the views from the CN Tower. These include both the main observation level (height: 1136') and the Skypod (height: 1465'). Other than perhaps the Burj Dubai, I believe the Skypod is the tallest public observation level in the world. Without a doubt, Toronto has one hell of a sea of highrises!
Also are a few shots taken out of my hotel room window, as well as a few of some of our fellow SSPers...
At any rate, hope you enjoy!

Highrises as far as the eye can see!
My hotel was on the bottom right of this photo... Not too shabby!
