The Building Boom Continues

So took another downtown shot. This one has a lot in it which makes it quite busy. That, however, describes downtown Edmonton these days

[wendy frost]

Great capture against the brilliant blue sky.

[Lou Ann]

Old and new, that describes downtown Dallas too. I'll have to take some shots of my city's architecture to show you.

[Catherine]

So interesting to see the mix of old and new. Love the deep blue sky.

[Richard Hickey]

Cool picture.

[Merrelyn]

It's lovely that your old buildings survive among the modern ones. So many of ours have been demolished to make way for soulless towers :(

[gloria jones]

Neat shot, perspective...Seattle is in a perpetual construction mode.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Great downtown shot. Cities are so interesting.

[Peggy Sirk]

Edmonton looks like Charlotte, NC as far as the construction boom is concerned. We have construction cranes all through the skyline at the moment. A good sign for the economy.

[Vic]

Great shot Brian. It's a good idea to document some of the old buildings... who know how long they'll be there?

[Anita Campbell]

I'm enjoying your "downtown photography".

[Faye Turner]

Cool pov and picture!

[Ivan]

Great urban image...

[Lynne Hart]

As it does everywhere - i believe they call it progress!! Nice capture.

[Danny Davies]

Excellent bkb, it's got to be a huge city. :)

[Tony]

Great shot of that expanding skyline.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Great lines- I like how the buildings lead you into the center of the shot.

[Candace]

I love the brick buildings with the ghost signs!

[alia_801]

I like the contrasts between all the different buildings.

[Hubregt Visser]

Great combo of horizontal vertical and curved lines.

[Stephanie]

I see building developments and cranes....these are all over London as well. Nice capture... never seen a traffic lights on it's side like that before either.

How did I miss this shot? I love it--the contrast of old buildings and new ones, and the new construction going on, shows the energy of Edmonton. And I love the sign on the old building. Fav.
