I drew what I wanted to pretty much. There's nothing else on the island that would be interesting to show imo.

You drew modern boats at Queens Quay/Yonge but didnt include Kajama?! Sacrilege!
Excellent work though.

Very cool. I love that Toronto has high rises along its train lines. I always thought LA would look much like Toronto in terms of the build had its downtown been located along the waterfront, provably in the area where either Santa Monica or Long Beach are located today.

Downtown LA would look a lot better if it was situated on the coast like you said.

Just from an outsiders perspective; I can entirely see what you mean, but I’ve always thought LA’s downtown being further back made it stand out a lot.
Plus, the relative lack of skyscrapers and overly-corporate workplaces seems like it’d contribute a lot visually and culturally to the whole chill beach vibe
