if you look closely, you can see 2 cranes from EPCOR tower behind CN Tower. I figure the CN tower will block most of the EPCOR tower from that angle.

How do you figure? This picture is taken from the south side of the river... The CN tower is in front of what will be the EPCOR tower... You can already see that the CN Tower is blocking most of the construction crane...

i'm pretty sure that picture is taken from the north end of the airport with the indy grandstands going up in the foreground and the city centre airport control tower in the midground...

left to right you see the cn tower with century place behind it to the left and canada place behind it to the right, then avord arms with sun life behind it, oxford tower and sutton place, canada trust, manu life (behind the control tower) and commerce place, enbridge, ing and cwb place...

all in all, you are looking south, not from the south.

that's how i figure it anyway.

Some random photos from the heart of Edmonton's Central Business District yesterday. Basically the churchill square area. Going on was the Works Art & Design Festival, although I kinda went at a crappy time.

Lemme know what you think!
