The shots from the CN tower did it for me

Great shot of Maple Leaf Square!

Nice pictures. That's a crisp shot of Niagara Falls that you took.

It's said that on a really clear day, you can see Rochester. Did you see its skyline at all?

Nailed it. I really dig the shots looking NW from the CN Tower.

Wow Chris, I think this is your best set of Toronto photos I can remember. Its certainly looks like an american city for sure. Yeah I know the Canadians hate to here this, but its true.

Is this not the highrise of Buffalo that we see on the left?

You would probably see other Buffalo buildings if that were the case, such as City Hall, which is wide and pretty tall. I would guess that that is the Seneca Niagara Casino in Niagara Falls, NY; it sits all by itself, since there's not much of a skyline on the American side.

I think that could be the HSBC in Buffalo on the left. A while back I took a shot from the Niagara Escarpment in Burlington, ON and the HSBC building in Buffalo was just visible to the right (different angle) of the Niagara Falls skyline. Buffalo City Hall was not visible.

That is definitely the Seneca Niagara Casino tower. You can tell by the front width compared to the shadowing of the side width.

I think I remember the debate about the image flar is talking about. If it is the one I am thinking of, it was the Brock University Library tower in St. Catharines shown in that image not the HSBC in downtown Buffalo.
