Toronto Skyline Silhoutte Vector

Suwhenzetie · October 20th, 2012, 10:21 PM

I was working on a something for Graphic Design. It is for a class in college i am taking, we have to take something typed and make it unique. I have decided to use the skyline of Toronto as part of mine. I came to this site as I have been for ages and borrowed a picture of Toronto's Skyline, a rather awesome one if you ask me. I'll quote it after my post.

So here I post it in case anyone wants to use it for anything they feel like. MAybe others could do the same with other Cities and place then along side this one to compare them (chicago would be nice to see compared to Toronto

.

Also, this is my first post on the site

You people have Excellent shots of Toronto.

Hey, Suwhenzetie, welcome to our group!

Brantford is a cool old town, so you need think it is unfortunate to live there!
I like your idea and hope people contribute.

I think that from such an angle, the Chicago skyline would trump Toronto's. This is because of Chicago's skyline being built against the lake, while Toronto's goes out from the lake; thus most of it isn't even visible in that photo. Even large projects like Aura (which I believe is around 250m tall) and Four Seasons (~200m) will never be visible from this angle.

Without a doubt.

Toronto's skyline runs for about 15km north from the water in a straight line up Yonge Street. Bit of a gap in the middle (Lawrence) but the rest is filling in fairly well.

It's pretty difficult to photograph effectively though.

Random comment: A super tall between BMO and CN Tower would be amazing.

i'd say put it about 6 blocks down from the Scotiabank Tower. To the Right that is.
