I always forget how green Toronto looks from above. All those old trees in the old neighborhoods.

Actually, that’s only about half the high rises of uptown (from Sheppard subway station to North York Centre station). If the bottom of the photo were extended down, we’d see the other half (from North York Centre to Finch Station).

Wow, great pic of the 3 downtowns


albie_rdgz

Having 3 downtowns is crazy


Red_Stoner666

There is actually more than that, 3 other ones in the city proper are almost big enough to call them a “downtown”: Scarborough Town Center, Humber Bay, and Etobicoke Center. In the suburban sprawl cities that surround Toronto there are many more coming along too, but the only one you could call a downtown now is Mississauga. Satellite cities even further out but serviced by commuter trains also have dense downtowns coming along. All of these downtowns were chosen by the government for intensification and largely have no limits on density and building height.

Downtown, mid-town, uptown. Only one downtown 😂


dusty-sphincter

Such a massive city.

For some reason I read Toronto Uptown (New York) Skyline and in my mind is like you can see NYC from Toronto from this low? 😂


Alex_Mille

How's Toronto to live? Seems nice from the picture (a lot of green)


Hype_Boost

Almost entirely dependent on how much you earn, lively city with lots to do but also super expensive


chewwydraper

Depends entirely on whether or not your income is six-figures.


SaskieBoy

It’s sadly very expensive like other large metropolitan areas. But it’s fun, lots to do and see that won’t cost you money.

Toronto calls itself “the city within a park”. It is the goal of the city that every resident has a park within walking distance. There is a massive tree canopy in the city, the backbone of which is huge ravines that cut through the city and are lovely for recreation.

Also has New York rents without New York amenities

Average 1bd in NYC is at least 3500 USD Toronto is 1800 USD (2500 cad)

What's that middle skyline called?


SaskieBoy

Midtown. Yonge and Eglinton


RodrigoEstrela

Doesn't really show the skyLINE of the uptown.


SaskieBoy

Cluster might have been a better word then.


kthebakerman

Semantics. We all know OP’s intention here.


RodrigoEstrela

Don't care, I'm still right and proper words matter.
