azzaro Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 These shots may not mean much to many of you but anyone familiar with Toronto should get a kick out of them. The Ontario Science Centre (3 buildings on the right) Spent many a March Break there with the kids. The Don Valley (parking lot) Parkway. Unusually empty? From left to right: Air Canada (now Scotiabank) Arena, CN Tower, Union Station, Royal York Hotel and several bank towers. Again L to R: The Roundhouse, Ripley's Aquarium, Skydome (Rogers Centre)/CN Tower and the CBC Building (red roof). Toronto Island Airport and the West Channel with possibly the world's shortrest ferry crossing. (Yes, there's a pedestrian tunnel too) Ontario Place and Exhibition Place, home to our Indy Track and the Canadian National Exhibition. (not this year) Lake Shore Blvd., the Gardiner Expressway, The Queensway and High Park/Grenadier Pond. The University of Toronto main campus and Varsity Stadium. The Royal Ontario Museum and Planetarium at Bloor St. and University Avenue. Yonge and Bloor Street intersection. Toronto Main Library is the red building just visible on the left. Maple Leaf Gardens. The white domed structure for you olde timey hockey fans. Casa Loma (left corner) Better known as Professor Xavier's mansion in the X-men films and Wayne Manor in Netflix's Titans. There will no doubt be more to come — especially when helicopters are introduced to MSFS.

Rupert Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 You're right! I'm not sure the freeway or Toronto itself is that clear of traffic at 02:00! Nice shots though. ;) Michael Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NMLW Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Looks awfully nice and very detailed Bob. You gave us a fine tour. :) :) I was really hoping you would have taken us through the West Channel pedestrian tunnel. :eek: Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVIDSTRAKA Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Great tour there Bob! I’m looking forward to the day when I can check out how well they model my hometown of Toronto, Ohio and the surrounding area. :) Senior Rookie Bragware: FSX Gold - Acceleration | HP Omen Obelisk Desktop | Intel Core i7 3.2 Ghz |16GB | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 | 1TB HD | 256 GB SSD (Gaming Computer) REX Worldwide Airports HD AS16 + ASCA ORBX Global BASE ORBX Freeware Airports ORBX HD Trees [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azzaro Posted September 24, 2020 Author Share Posted September 24, 2020 I’m looking forward to the day when I can check out how well they model my hometown of Toronto, Ohio and the surrounding area. :) I'd be glad to check it out for you. The buildings are probably a little more generic. ;) I'll add it to my list of places to see. It's a looong one. -- Bob [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] i7-7700 3.6GHz / GTX1660 6GB / 32GB RAM / 49" Samsung CHG90 / WIN10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
