One thing Hamilton lacks though from every other large city, lets say the 10 largest in Canada to be fair is density from the street vs. from the air if you know what I mean. Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary, Winnipeg to name a few all have it and seems like a tunnel vision of buildings. I think it's the cluster of office buildings that truly prove my point.
From the air, our skyline looks dense itself but when viewed from the street say Main and King which are the only main dwntwn throughfares (maybe James and York too), but it seems to break off after just a few blocks. Some of you may know what I'm talking about but I'll try to post an example later.
Our downtown just seems like the type you drive though to get to where you need to go instead of having to actually go out of your way to go downtown.
