Buildings in Barrie

I want to draw more buildings in barrie. the only building i've been able to accurately draw is High Point Apartments. I grabbed this picture from Flickr. I was wondering if some could tell me the names of the highrises in it. Besides the city hall. i know which one that is lol. I'd draw it too but for some reason it's not in the building database. Thanks!

Barrie's City Hall is probably not in the database because it is a low rise. If you draw it, it can be added.

Ah who cares as you can see it's not a good drawing. I did some changes and uploaded it

why are you confused goodlookin? thanks for the info and for adding the cityhall. bay shore landing buildings appear to be drawn by me. but what i thought was bay shore landing actually wasn't so ill delete my old ones.

also.. on bayfield street beside highpoint apartments there's a building just like it but smaller. maybe around 10 floors. I think it might be called lowpoint apartments though i'm not sure. there's also a building just south of those two. it's almost as tall has highpoint and has alittle more glass on it. No idea what it's called.



The new and more accurate bay shore drawing:

There are less than twenty "highrises" in Barrie and all of them are in SSP. The process of elimination should be therefore easy using google maps with the labels turned on.

for instance,

or

I just call it old because a new one was built on the other end of the city.

Wow, you guys only have two libraries? I thought Thunder Bay was lacking with "just four". Sudbury has 11! They're in between us in terms of size.

Barrie only needs 2 libraries. If we had 11, more then half of them would be dead.

Bookstores and libraries are pretty different things, though. In Thunder Bay, libraries are more about community access than books these days. I'm not even sure the word "library" is an accurate description of what libraries do anymore, because they are so much more than that. They're like community living rooms/help desks.

This library is way too small to be included in the database.
