androiduk's My Toronto

As towers get bigger and bigger, there may come a day when the CN Tower's views will be compromised.

"As towers get bigger and bigger, there may come a day when the CN Tower's views will be compromised."

I can't say I would lament such a loss. The CN Tower is certainly a singular design, it's height and boldness being its most attractive qualitites, but I can't convincingly claim it is beautiful. I've often thought it looks sterile, cold and isolated from the rest of the city. Indeed, it was originally isolated, surrounded only by parking lots and train tracks. I think as Toronto becomes more dense, and old CN is surrounded by other towers, it will assume a more comfortable and attractive role within our skyline.

By the way, thanks for the photos!
