This is why I have never been a big fan of Toronto's skyline. Toronto is getting a lot of buildings but they all look the same and creating more of a solid glass wall than a skyline. So many of Calgary's new buildings have character and are bold and vivid and yet Toronto City Hall seems to be only concerned with them not falling down and mediocrity rules the day.
It's a fair criticism that we're getting too much blue glass (though are 156 Front and Union Centre are hardly "McTowers") I'm confused about why you bring Calgary up as a point of contrast. Aside from The Bow, most big projects they've built or are building are also blue glass.
