Rooftops
Last week I was taking a tour of a newly installed green roof on one of the buildings at U of Toronto and the view from up there was rather nice. Here we are seeing part of the campus in the forefront with Massey College and its modern bell tower on the left and the Soldiers Tower of Hart House to the right. In the background are government buildings including the Queens Park legislature buildings and the tall towers at the back are part of the financial district along Bay St. The green playing field belongs to University College and it will be used for field hockey during the PanAm Games which take place here in July.

What a contrasting skyline, fantastic!
An amazing view... I love green roofs!
Great view!
a nice view!
Wonderful view. You even got some moody clouds in the shot.
I've walked through this area on a number of occasions. Soldiers Tower has always held my interest.
I bet that was an interesting tour. This view is just incredible, what a gorgeous day too!
Lovely view!
Quite the view!
Lovely patch of urban green.
Neat view of the city, I agree.
Fantastic! The view, the colours, the blue, spring, green, that ball? on the right...
Quite a pleasant cityscape; nice to see old and new rubbing shoulders.
I love the roof top view of cities, and this is a fine one. I can imagine wandering around here.
This is one skyline that is in continuous change.
Great atmosphere for students, thank you for closer Toronto.
Greetings.
Nice to still see a bit of open space!
Nice contemporary landscape, what a great sky...
That is quite a view! I like the way the clouds look.
It is good to see wide views every now and then, to put the city into perspective.
Never a boring moment in Toronto!

Toronto's landscape is ever changing. I hope the powers that be take down the Gardener.
Your view is pleasing to the eye.
Fantastic view:)
What fun that we've both done a (different!) skyline post! I'll show this view to my daughter to see if she recognises where it is. I'm all for green roofs. We're about to install solar panels on our house, which rules out the green roof, but I have a long-term plan for one.
Wonderful and interesting view.
Stunning shot, Pat. Full.
Beautiful mix of styles Pat.I love it ;))
Super roof top vistas Pat.. I'm just beginning to realise how popular hockey is in Canada :) Seems we will be hosting a Canadian hockey team here in Perth soon, next month I think. I might have to try and get tickets for it :)
