Yes! I like the factory skyline as well. It's a glimpse into reality, and it looks very other-worldly and amazing to me.

I actually like bringing people into the city via Burlington St when I can because I think it is a unique and awe inspiring view. I also like the approach by the 403 because of cootes. In my opinion, no matter which way you come into Hamilton you are in for a treat.... coming down the 403 from ancaster, amazing view. Coming in by cootes, amazing. Coming in Burlington street, amazing. And even coming down the new RHV!

I always use the steel mills as an example of nimbyism for the entire rest of the province: everyone loves to talk about how "ugly" Hamilton is when they pass by on the skyway -- but where the hell do they think the steel for their car came from? It has to come from somewhere and I for one embrace this part of our history (and our present!)
