Just post images or state what buildings already built, proposed, under construction, or cancelled that you would love to see in your city.

I'd love to see #3 WTC built in Calgary.

1,240' Pinnacle / 1,147' Roof | 71 FLOORS

Although it would never happen, we can dream can't we? :slob:

^such sarcasm, and from a moderator no less.

I agree about Petronas even though they never deserved the world's tallest title, they are such beauties. As far as twins go, they even give the Olsens a run for their money.

Rapswin, I noticed your picture of Comcast looks like a CGR. Did you know that Comcast is finished? Have a look:

I would ALSO love the Comcast Ctr for Hamilton.
It should win the 'Sexiest NEW Skycraper' award... if there were one...

My 2nd choice would be the Bank of America Corporate Ctr in Charlotte, NC:

I never knew it was completely finished i thought it still needed to be topped out
