What skyline? Wow. The contrast.

Ten years more brings new city hall and the TD Centre. From there, up and up.

What are the waterfront smoke stacks to the west (left) of the Royal York?
 
One of the things I love about this vista is the rising and falling roof line motif that moves from one building to the other like a stock market graph. Starting from left to right it includes the slope of the L-Tower the upward V's of the two Brookfield Place towers , the downward slope of 88 Scott, the upward V of 1 King Street, the downward V of the Scotia Bank Building and lastly the corner cut-out, downward V of the mid-rise office building just to the right. That says Financial District to me! Well done. Thank you for the photo.
