^ HA! Agreed, these are a bit gimmicky and look like they are dancing spasmodically. That being said, I really didn't like them when they announced and as the cladding started to appear, but they are slowly growing on me. I hope the locals come up with a good nickname - like the Roxbury Towers - for these like they do in London.

I must apologize for the quality...this was taken today about 2 miles southwest of the site:

The first two buildings are in the centre right below...this is approximately 3 miles west-southwest

Yesterday

I didn't realize it's been a while since I photographed this site. I took this yesterday, centre of frame, not even a mile from the site:

A very sterile city, but it has a fantastic skyline!

Yeah, it's not a pretty city, outside of three former village sites that are surrounded by suburbia.
I took these today, the podium is really taking shape now for what will be the tallest building in Mississauga (M3 at M City). Here's the first phase, including the nearly wrapped up podium:

M4 is totally the designated driver of this group.
