I really wish they would have put these super tall towers more in the middle downtown. The skyline's going to look weird from a lot of angles when these are done.

If you only compare it against finished buildings, it would be the 4th tallest in Canada.
Ok yeah. Wiki lists buildings and structures differently. CN tower does not count as a building by the definition I used.

Just more incentive to push past 1000' when the next one is built in the CBD.
