Stunning photos... Winnipeg might not share the pace of development as other Canadian cities but it sure has a lot more something Vancouver and Toronto will never have and that is the amazing collection of 100 year old stone and brick high-rises as a significant part of it's current skyline. Very Chicago-esque. These photos do it more than justice!

^Yup. WpG_Guy's second photo will look incredible with The Forks lots filled with medium-density buildings – even if nothing else were to ever get built behind them.

I agree. These are totally awesome pictures WpG_GuY. Every time I see them, I have a greater sense of appreciation for my home town. The varying degrees of architecture in this city is second to none. Thanks for sharing them with us.

- Really bulked up from the Alt ---> west
- Needs work from 360 Main to Radisson (will be helped by 300 Main)
- Needs work around P&M - depth behind Richardson, fill in McIntyre Block Lot

From this angle, Hydro completely blocks out tower 2 of TNS which is a shame but 390 on the river looks good.

^^^I can't get enough of these pictures! The shots are from so many angles and offer different perspectives of Winnipeg than what we're typically used to seeing. Thanks WpG_GuY.
