I read about it in Metro the other week and had a similar reaction. Not only are they a landmark for me when flying in YYC, one of my good friends lives in Skyview and it's one of the few unique/distinguishing features in the area. It was a welcomed break from forced community landmarks (e.g. fake remains of a monastery).
