Skyline is very dense, very big and tall relative to the size of the metro area, pretty good architecture inc. high ratio of office to condo, and has a nice shape/balance from most angles. 8/10

VERY underrated skyline. IMO, 2nd best skyline of Canada - compact and amazing architecture

Calgary's skyline is starting to get some recognition outside of Canada, but it will likely need 1-2 substantially taller buildings before many people take a closer look. Perhaps, just 1 very striking 250m+ building would do the trick. Herald Square might come close to that height so Calgary's day in the sun could be just around the corner.

What's encouraging is that Calgary has managed to build an impressive skyline that's practically all office. If they ever start building condos downtown like Vancouver and Toronto, the Calgary skyline could very well get much much bigger. I do like that its heavily skewed to office, but condos would add more people/vibrancy to the downtown core.
