I had lunch with the family last sunday at Covent Garden market. Sitting on the second level and looking out the window to the southwest, with the Ren towers rising above the restaurants on King, it was almost a big city vista.

Dear London, you've always been like a big brother to Windsor and we are proud of your growth. Even though some of you have grown complacent and feel it's not fast enough, you are growing, changing and building and seeing some resurgance in your downtown core.
Be proud London, don't count yourself short. :tup: |
I was just wondering since im not from London, Whats with all the tower twinning in you city? Not that its a bad thing, but i was in town for a meeting and i thought i had eye problems seeing 2 sets of towers in each direction. its interesting.

Another great London vista can actually be found on Richmond Street between Fanshawe Park and Sunningdale Roads. It's really neat because you can see tower blocks, church spires, office buildings and a few UWO landmarks poking out of the trees. If you have enough of an imagination, you could almost mistake it for a small English city. |
Twins are simply cheap to construct. Just reuse or mirror the design you already have and boom you don't have to go through the effort to design a new building. Most twins in London are exactly this, with the exception of City Centre and Two London Place (if it gets built) which are shorter.
The view from the market will look even better if Covet Place is built. See some pics of it in the downtown vision: http://www.london.ca/Planning_and_De...pt_28_2011.pdf |
^lovely renders. "London is the city of opportunity!"

So, I am not sure London, Ontario would be included in a list of top 10 cities in England. Probably not even in top 20. |

You can't just say that London, Ontario is the same size metro as Bristol, UK or that London, Ontario would be England's 10th largest city because the Canadian standard for a metro is different than the UK. I live in Bath and work in Bristol and I can assure you that Bristol metro is much larger than London, Ontario. It is over 1 million people. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol (look at the population table). |
Sorry boys. Just quoting the Wikipedia for England metro pops. Perhaps the yardsticks are different. I was wrong under such pretenses.
