^ I can't wait to visit those towers in person once they're done. It's too bad you can't see them from the traditional view across the river, but they've made such an impact around the arena. Standing on 104 ave in the evening with those towers around you is the most big city moment Edmonton has now, along maybe with 101 st at Manulife Place. It's just awesome.
The view from outside of Downtown is so much different now...
Mech pent on the JW and 26 floors to go on Stantec

The next building off the list is 10 York - 224 meters.
Toronto has been holding steady at 8/10 on the list and the turnover right now is making the list shorter overall. So we really need for a massive tower or two to start to take the list back to all over 200 meters.
It's interesting how Massey looks amazing from some angles, and then you see the North face, and it's just another blue glass box. Especially as that's the side most people will see, looking down the street from Dundas Square.

It's the Yonge facing (west side) of the building that matters most. Eventually another tower will rise just north of Massey so the glass side won't be visible from Dundas Square or points further north.
