It does tend to do that. It's hard to imagine that the tallest skyscraper is almost 300 m !... But on the other hand, you get a great view from the top and it makes the skyline recognizable.

I believe it will fill the gap between First Canadian Place and Scotia Tower

Correct, and unfortunately Bay-Adelaide is completely eclipsed by FCP from this viewpoint.

I can't wait till Shangri-La sprouts upward. It will greatly enhance this view from the CN Tower. I hope AURA will still be visible once Shangri-La is complete. I imagine that it will just escape being hidden by it.

It's a nice vantage point. F1 to me means Formula One. What were you referring to? BMO Field is strictly soccer too. The Argonauts considered playing there, but got a lot of resistance from the soccer team.

Shangri-La probably won't obstruct any part of Aura from this viewpoint. I figure it will top out about halfway up the smokestack that is visible in front of the ROCP towers. Aura is going up to the right of its smaller brethren. In any case, it will rise to about the height line of X, if not higher.
