This explains the sub

Is this intentionally a Canadian sub? Are we intending to keep it this way? Because I can gtfo if that’s what the maple leaves want. Or maybe I’ll stay and make things a bit more liberated 🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅 btw not sure if yall heard it’s our 250th birthday yesterday
Update: I’m ready to call a truce. Now that we know you’re all Canadians, cover me in syrup and bring out the CN pictures. I’m all here for it

The Absolute World Towers

Also known as the Marilyn Monroe Towers, they were completed in 2012 and remained Mississauga’s tallest buildings until 2024.

They stand at 179.5 and 158 metres.

Photo taken by me in October 2021.

NYC

Upper West Side. Some of the best high-rise density on the planet. Absolutely delightful streets. Happy we are not becoming some ubiquitous city of glass towers.

(Multiple) Cracked Windows in Landmark 81 - HCMC Vietnam, is it normal ?

Hey everyone, not exactly a skyscraper expert just an enthusiast haha. Thought this might be the right sub to ask. I was at Landmark 81 in Saigon Vietnam / observatory and noticed multiple cracked laminate windows at the 81st floor. One panel was even missing the entire outside layer !
Is this normal in buildings of such height or a build problem ?

Any explanation appreciated !

Calgary, Alberta, Canada from the sky facing south. This is where people from Toronto come if they can’t afford Toronto.
