I like the little Steeple this Hotel has on top of it, that's the old Royal Bank building behind it. It almost looks lie its part of the rooftop. (My photo)

fantastic set of pictures rumors! These roof tops beat out any option in this thread by a mile. Manitoba Hydro? Seems fine. Nothing spectacular.

Way to go Eighth Avenue Place in Calgary. I have to say it is pretty stunning as a lit feature.

Is it weird that kind of I like that Marriot building? It has a bit of a Jetsons feel.
