Fantastic pics, such a lively neighbourhood! Looks like the neighbourhood in Utrecht I'll be moving to (that one is also looking a bit rundown ;) ) Your pics also remind me of Christopher's pics of Montréal btw.

Great series indeed! I've been there 3 times and loved it, especially all of Gaudi's creations. Didn't you think that Parc Guell looks like an urban disneyland ;) I've always seen 'Barça' as a European version of LA, it's a coastal city surrounded by hills, plus thousands of tourists from...

Anarcho, thanks for the info on Ottawa! I understand how having lots of green spaces add to the attractiveness of a city... I am moving to Utrecht this week and I'm 100 metres away from a large urban park.

Just checked this thread out for the 2nd time :) Fantastic job !!

Fantastic pics! I like your emphasis on transit infrastructure. Keep the California pics coming !:cool:

^ You certainly wouldn't regret it ;)

I'm loving the garden @ MoMA. Also, I like the setup of DiMaggio's 'highway', it's good how he emphasized bikes. 7 WTC looks great, too!

Very impressive city, thanks for sharing!

"Obviously these events cannot take place these days without vandalism," He is right here, and I think that it is pathetic that supporters cannot celebrate the victory of their favorite team without rioting.

Great thread, thanks for sharing. I agee with you that Pasadena looks like a nice neighbourhood, it looks relatively dense (by LA standards) too. Your conclusion is very interesting, and 'against conventional thought'. Los Angeles is usually the last place people associate with a progressive...

You're welcome! I know of no other developments in both the Netherlands and Europe that are similar to the one in Den Bosch. The names 's Hertogenbosch and Den Bosch are used interchangeably. You can use whichever one you prefer. In writing, 's Hertogenbosch is usually used, it is the more...

Also, the building to the left in your first picture reminds me of Mahler 4 Viñoly in Amsterdam.

That Clear Spirit project in Toronto looks very nice. Anarcho, it also reminds me of Dutch architecture, especially the pillars that support the tower. We see that a lot here in Rotterdam. You say that you believe that you've seen a similar design in the Netherlands. Just maybe, that could...

Very interesting website. They also have a project in The Netherlands: I think this development will really stand out in the city, as it currently hasn't got any significant highrises. Plus, the design is really beautiful IMO:

Geesh! You may consider yourself very lucky, living in such a desired area ;) Chances are we walked right past each other monday !

You beat me! I only took 85! Those are some great pics you posted. Where exactly do you live if I may ask?

Interresting pictures! I especially enjoyed looking at the ones from St. Catherines, a few of my Canadian relatives grew up there.

My friends and I went to Amsterdam yesterday to celebrate Queensday. It's the most significant national holiday in the Netherlands, and the events arranged in Amsterdam are massive. The weather was great and there were around 500,000 people walking around in the innercity, according to the City...

It's a shame that LCL freight, transported via trams, was stopped in Toronto. Somehow it seems the concept of transporting freight with trams, which is nowadays perceived to be progressive, is just an idea from a past era in which we weren't so focussed on cars.

Thanks for all your positive feedback, guys. It's great to see you appreciate my photos :)
