How did i find this video,it seems to be much higher production then id expect from a small channel.
Hey thanks! I've been trying to produce factual and good content for my channel. Maybe someday people will notice. Thanks for commenting! Feel free to subscribe if this kind of stuff interests you!
@@AJMSTUDIOSvideo good luck this is really good i subbed
Wow I expected him to have at least 100k
@Jamison Heath you mind getting this very obvious scam outta here
Like this comment hasnt gottin a reply in months, and then 2 people outta nowhere reply
Props to Iqaluit; takes stones to call a building wider than it is tall, a "tower".
As a Montrealer, most of us recognize the 1000 de la Gauchetière as the tallest building in Quebec. The 1250 Réné-Levesque is only the “tallest” because of the spire on its top. The spire is very tall and it’s too narrow for anyone to be inside. It’s just an antenna. The building itself may appear taller in some pictures but this is due to the angle of the camera and the fact that the 1000 de la Gauchetière is built lower down on the hill surrounding Mont Royale.
Thank you for sharing that in a respectful way unlike so many of the commenters below. I agree, 1000 de la Gauchetière is a much prettier building and very iconic as well. Cheers!
And u late bro there 4tbuilding in construction that are equal as the other tallest
Nova Scotia is part of Atlantic Canada. 🤔
Lmfao
Addressed in the comments below. It was just a human error. Halifax wins with Fenwick Tower.
nova scotia is a part of atlantic canada ?
@@AJMSTUDIOSvideo c'mon fix the video! :) re-edit.
@@AJMSTUDIOSvideo you also missed mentioned the in development/early construction kings worth which will be over 100m tall
Does anyone else want to see a video of the strangest buildings in Canada? Edit thanks for all the likes
I live in Manitoba
@@kthecanadian8523 we didn't say "weirdest province".
Fun fact worth mentioning: There's a law in Montreal which makes it illegal to build a building taller than the Mount Royal, which is 233 meters high
Yeah! A couple other people mentioned that in the comments as well. I wish I would have stated that in the video. Thanks! :D
The Stantec tower stands out in the Edmonton skyline and makes it look so good
1250 René-Lévesque is the address of the building. There is no controversy about that unless you make one. It was also known as IBM-Marathon.
yes was going to comment this
Thanks. I've been told several times below.
I work right in front of "The One" as a security guard at Hudson’s Bay Centre, it was under construction until the provincial lockdowns
Thanks for the update! Be safe out there and stay warm. :)
i work in adjoining building 33 bloor
It's been back to normal on that site for months now
@@manansharma4178 Maybe you two can wave to each others. :D
@@AJMSTUDIOSvideo They also recently applied to raise the height to 338 m (1110 feet) and a total count of 94 floors. There are numerous other projects progressing for supertall skyscrapers across Toronto, from the Mirvish Towers to Pinnacle One Yonge, but this would keep it above them all, if it gets approved. urbantoronto.ca/news/2021/01/canadas-first-supertall-one-shooting-be-supertaller
This video is really well done. Your voice is super clear and enthusiastic. Subbed. Hoping for more Canadian content!
Thank you so much! I got two vids coming out soon, working on a third. I will sneak in something Canadian for sure! :D
Montreal building heights are limited by a bylaw that prohibits any building of being higher than Mount-Royal and we like it like that.
Height limits are anti-urban.
Vancouver also has height limits to protect the views of the mountains.
such a stupid law
@@alainouellet7794 thanks for the constructive criticism, again Montrealers accept, understand and see the beauty of that decision. Otherwise we would have skyscrapers hiding the nature preserve that Mont -Royal is. I would not want to come from the south shore of the Saint-Lawrence river and see skyscrapers that hide the beauty of our mountain. It’s a 10 square kilometre heritage site, almost 4 square miles.
@@alainouellet7794 It's not. We want our city to preserve this aesthetic and to not look like a concrete jungle. Mont-Royal is the heart and soul of Montréal.
Fenwick Tower is an interesting one- It was originally intended as a luxury residence, but the developer ran out of money, so Dalhousie University took it over and turned it into a student residence. Students are not known for being kind to their residence buildings, and universities usually don't sink a lot of money into making their residences pretty. So that's why Fenwick Tower got such a bad reputation for many years, but they're currently trying to fix that.
As for First Canadian Place, I love that skyscraper, when I lived in Toronto I spent a lot of time downtown, and being around it always made me feel better. Those rooftop antennae give it some character too, they're more interesting than just a flat roof.
Thank you for the extra info and your experiences! :D I love comments like this and truly appreciate them! On a side note, hopefully Fenwick Tower can live up to it's potential. Also pretty FCP is a pretty cool building. Nice sleek design. :)
@@AJMSTUDIOSvideo Another fun fact about First Canadian- it’s architect, Edward Durell Stone wasn’t licensed to practice in Ontario, so his office had to partner up with a local architect- Bregman and Hammann. That same firm also partnered up with Mies van der Rohe when he got the commission for the Toronto Dominion Center.
Fenwick Tower also battled years of bad PR because of lousy student behaviour- among other offences, it wasn’t uncommon for students to throw objects large and small from balconies many stories up, and it got so bad that the university had to implement a zero tolerance policy- get caught throwing ANYTHING and you’re out.
@@LadyAmanita That is very interesting. Thank you for sharing that!
Atlantic Canada includes Nova Scotia so when you say the tallest building in Atlantic Canada it should be the one in Halifax not the one in New Brunswick.
Is anyone else Canadian and still didn’t know about mahs point
same
I've literally been to Whitehorse and still didn't know about it
I live here and it is just a normal building
Yeah
I loved the nod to the Dead Mall series … that was fantastic.
Thank you. It's was a series I really enjoyed. :)
It’s not dead, there a few store and a Library and 3 restaurants (Tim Hortons,A&W,)in the mall of Yellowknife and an hotel
I've always wanted to visit Canada. I'm Australian, and everyone here loves Canada. You're like our cold weather brothers. I always laugh when Canadians say their money was the first to use polymer since we've been using that since when I was a small kid (I'm 35 now) and we're already onto our second generation of it. Anyway, I digress. I'd love to visit the Great White North one day. Apparently Vancouver has the fourth highest diaspora of Australians than other city on Earth, just behind London, Auckland, and Los Angeles.
Thank you for watching. :) There are a lot of beautiful cities. Both Canada and the US are so diverse and it's quite astounding when you get there. I've been along Australia's eastern coast. Beautiful country! Beautiful people. Would love to visit Perth and Tasmania someday.
When I lived in Whistler, Jan 26 was a riot.
I’ve always wanted to go to Australia as well and I’m Canadian, we also love Australia here in Canada :)
You’re welcome anytime!
I'd like to see some Canadian coins with a Canadians head on them
I live in a suburb of Edmonton and see the Stantec tower every day! I knew it was big, but I didn’t that Alberta was in second for tallest buildings in Canada! Great informative video!
I am glad you enjoyed the video and what a neat view of such a tall building you must see. :D Cheers!
It's taller than the tallest building in Calgary by around three meters I think. Edmonton thought it was some sort of competition for tallest building in Alberta.
Nice work! I am subscribing as I want more Canadian content.
Thank you. I better start working on more.
The building in Quebec is not named after Rene Levesque... You just gave the adress, which is on René Levesque Boulevard...
It used to be called the IBM marathon tower. Now its just named the 1250 René Levesque, which is its address. Most buildings in Montreal are named by their address. The second tallest building is named Le 1000 de la Gauchetière, which is again, its address.
The building is literally called 1250 René-Levesque lol
Winnipeg is in the middle of building a new tallest tower thats gonna be 142 metres tall. its around 30-40% completed. Good video though
I look forward to adding it in an update video! Hopefully someone can take pictures and share it for video use. :)
Yes my dad works in the building right nxt to it
No one gives a shit about crusty winnipeg. Hope you losers lose your team again.

@@jasonthompson318 “Im such a tough guy you hear”. Dude you’re literally just a trash talking nobody on RUclips. Get out of your parent’s basement
At the start, you flashed some images of unique structures to be found in Iqaluit. I did not know about these and would like to learn more! The whole video actually makes this selection of varied communities look like pleasant places to visit, ringed by oceans, rivers, forest mountains, satellite cities or permafrost.
Thank you so much! I would love to do another video on that. I just worry I couldn't pronounce the names worth beans and get attacked by the viewers! Haha! I really appreciated the comment!
Actually the name of the highest building in Québec isn't controversial; the street's name is though. Its name actually is the 1250 Renée Lévesque because the building is situated on the 1250, Renée Lévesque blvd. The name of the building is simply from its address. The name of the street is somewhat controversial though. It was previously called Dorchester Boulevard up until 1987, the year of Lévesque's death, when it was renamed to celebrate his heritage as a previous and impactful Québec Premier. But the independent, enclaved, and mostly english speaking (and very rich) municipality of Westmount just near downtown had none of it and decided to keep the previous street's name as an act of disagreement and protest. Typical Québec drama.
Thank you for the civil response and explaining this better to me. I have so many angry comments on this and you explained it so nicely. I really appreciate it. Cheers!
René*, not Renée.
@@jrlepage2a03 who cares??
@@SgtPeppersLonelyHeartsClubBand I do
@@NOVAsteamed ok
The name of the building in Montreal has nothing to do with René Lévesque. It just happens that it's address is on René-Lévesque boulevard (1250 West René-Lévesque). In fact, the original name of the building was the IBM-Marathon Tower. No controversy here.
As for the name of the street, it was renamed in 1987, from Dorchester to René-Lévesque after the passing of the former Québec Prime Minister. No controversy here either as is much more relevant to to name an important street after an important characacter in history a than the obscure Dorchester. An By the way, the same has been done after the death of Robert Bourassa, also a former Prome minister of importance in History, and political opponant of Lévesque. (In his case, University street was renamed after him).
Thanks!
Only part of University St was named after Bourassa; below Sherbrooke St. By the way, it's something I don't like, as well as the changing of Dorchester to RLB.
It is on René-Lévesque boulevard, but that doesn't mean that they had to name the building that as there are many buildings in Montreal not named after the address. Robert Bourassa may have been a political opponent of Lévesque, but he also started a separatist party, the federal Bloc Québécois.
To say that it's no controversy is just your opinion. Many people were against both of those renaming's.
archive.macleans.ca/article/1987/11/30/commemorated-by-controversy
They also renamed Vimy Park in honour of Jacques Parizeau. Another separatist leader.

Je ne sais pas où vous trouverez votre info, mais Robert Bourassa n'était certainement le fondateur du Bloc québécois, c'était Lucien Bouchard. Bou-chard/ Bou-rassa. Mais bon, au moins vous vous êtes abstenu de déchaîner votre haine pour les Francophones du pays qui sont visiblement tous séparatistes à vos yeux.

As someone that lives in Maryland, USA all this stuff is very fascinating to me.
Thanks! I was working on a Maryland video earlier in the year actually. I stopped because no one was watching my videos, lol. I might have to start working on it again. ;-)
@@AJMSTUDIOSvideo I'll definitely watch if you release it.
My favourite building in Canada is the Commerce Court North Tower. It’s an Art Deco building built in 1931 in Toronto. It was the tallest building in the British Commonwealth until 1962. Sometimes when I walk by it, I can’t help but admire its grandiose. It’s lobby is a sight to behold also.
Damn how does this channel only has 1k subs, it’s got the quality you’d expect from a channel with over 100k subs, if he keeps pumping out good content like this, he’ll probably get big.
Thanks, Lorde! That is the goal to keep making good content. I beat my goal of a video a month last year, trying to do the same again.
@@AJMSTUDIOSvideo I’ll recommend your videos to my friends who dig this kind of content.
@@mntsam1930 Right on! :D Thank you!
I have an obsession with knowing the tallest buildings in each region (either provinces, states, cities, or countries themselves), and I had to click this when it arrived in my recommendations. Nice video, and great production for a small channel!
Thank you so much! I've tried to make a similar video but for Mexico, but there isn't enough information out there. And other people have done the USA like crazy. I made a similar video you might enjoy with better production value called "The Largest Buildings in the USA." I really appreciate the kind words!
Fun fact: Mah's Point in Whitehorse is actually tied with another four story building for the tallest I think. Whitehorse did only allow buildings up to twenty metres and four stories tall for a while to maintain the city's aesthetics, but very few four story buildings actually reached that height. So the city took out the floor limit to create more density. There are some specific areas in town zoned for twenty five metre tall buildings to go in like you said, but so far nothing has been built to that height yet.
I wonder if anyone will ever reach the new limit? :D Thanks for sharing.
@@AJMSTUDIOSvideo I think they will. There's quite a few buildings going up where developers seem to taking advantage of the increased height allowed. I remember seeing that Mah's Point 2 one on the retailor websites, but it got hit by the pandemic I think. At upwards of 700k, units where also being offered for an insane amount, even for Whitehorse which is a pretty expensive small city to buy in.
Great overview, keep up the fantastic work, appreciated the small asides in each province including the architectures of interesting building sin Nunavut!
I really appreciate the comment. Thanks so much. So many videos just show pictures and show basic text, I figured it would be fun to give a little history for each. :) Glad you enjoyed it.
Hey this is some really solid content, keep up the good work and I'm sure your channel will succeed!
Thank you very much:) It's nice to see some nice responses from people. I'm getting so much negative. :D

I was literally wondering what the tallest building in Canada was, as I already knew that the CN Tower isn’t technically a building, just like the KVLY tower isn’t the tallest in the US. All I could find was the CN Tower though. Thanks for the vid!
Great video, definitely have to check the channel out now. Also, I would be interested in a more detailed video of the unique structures you mentioned in Nunavut.
Thank you! I will add that to my list of things to start researching!
Awesome video I subscribed
And since I found this video I can say i was a subscriber when you where small just wait your gonna be successful
Right on! Thank you so much! :D It would be neat if that plays out. Thanks again!
This was an excellent video! Just as a heads up, the skytower known as pinnacle one yonge went under construction recently, and is supposed the be the
tallest building in Toronto at 313 meteres and 95 floors. The One has also restarted construction and is going quite fast actually. I think they are already at their 3rd or 4th floor in just a few weeks. Today, the developers also announced that they want to increase the height of The One to over 338 meters (1108.92 ft) and 94 floors. If approved by the city, it will be the tallest in Toronto. In addition, other buildings such as Mirvish and Gehry (329 meters and 91 floors) are also in the proposed stage. Two more right beside it at 301 meters and 310 meteres are also proposed as well as a 324 meter superthin skyscraper beside The One. Right now, it is hard to tell which will become tallest first as construction and new proposals are coming in so fast so we will have to wait and see. I think all this development is great though!
Thank you for all the info! :D Also thank you for the kind words! Lot's of exciting buildings coming up which might be in a new video someday. :D
Mirvish n Ghery was nixed to 301 M and 2?? M tall...I really have my doubts the building by Yorkville will really get a height increase, they were approved at that height for a reason.
I worked on Toronto Dominion building 1966 at that time tallest in commonwealth. 750ft 56 stories.
Thank you for sharing. I wished there were more photos of cities from that time period. I bet looking back it's pretty amazing seeing how much the city has transformed.
@@AJMSTUDIOSvideo You can be sure if someone builds a tall one someone will be looking to build a taller one.

I was the crane operator for The Yukon’s tallest building. Great company built it.
Hey thanks for responding and sharing that. Any other insight? How was it building in such a unique region (climate, sunlight/or lack thereof).
@@AJMSTUDIOSvideo most of the build was in summer under the midnight sun. I actually started as a labourer in spring and when the the crane was raised, I was given the opportunity to be the operator.
What most interested me about the build, was that every wall was built offsite, trucked in, then lifted with the crane and set in place. I know this is common in other city’s but not here. This was the first build to utilize a tower crane in The Yukon.
Fun fact. There is a hollow spot in the building, on the west side of the elevator. The space is about 10’x5’ and is as tall as the building itself.
@@mrplow3874 Thanks for sharing! The Midnight Sun is a weird feeling, especially if you are new to it. It can be surprising to look at your watch and realize it is 10 at night or midnight! Haha!

Work on the second floor began in December 2020...
Thank you and thank you for the update info on the building. :)
The 1250 René-Lévesque is not named in his honour. It's the name of the street : Boulevard René-Lévesque. So get the facts straight please. I never heard any controversy about that building and I work next door.
Thanks, I've been told this by many people now. Thank you for watching and I hope you enjoyed the video.
Still has his name on it.....
Also the tallest skyscraper in Montreal is 1000 de la Gauchetière .... Not 1250 Rene Levesque
@@KSGvideo *Searches tallest building in Montreal* The tallest building is 1250 René-Lévesque.

The Northern Heights building in Yellowknife was built in 1996. It was built while I lived there, and I moved there in 1990.
I appreciate the confirmation! I must ask (you don't have to answer) but how do/did you like living in Yellowknife? :)
Fun fact, no building in Montreal can surpass the peak of Mont-Royal. A small mountain just west of downtown with an elevation of 233meters.
Great video and channel 👍🙂🇨🇦
Thank you again! :D I appreciate the kind words.
Gotta say, as a local, that description of Yellowknife's Northern Heights was dead on. (And you're right, it was 1989.) Nice work!
That is refreshing to hear! Thank you!
1:40 I love the great urban style and use. Commercial below with a slight push back for residential. Definitely a Vancouver stylized building.
You can see that Stantec tower from a long ways away when driving down the Yellowhead highway from Jasper national park to Edmonton
That is so cool!
That's because all the other buildings are so short. Kinda looks ridiculous.
@@davidbrown3971 Until 2013 there was a restriction of 150m for maximum height of a building in Edmonton, due to the presence of the City Centre Airport directly north of the downtown area. The airport closed in 2012, and the limit was removed after that.
Cool video! Just a heads up, Moncton is actually pronounced ‘Munk-tin’, as opposed to ‘Monk-tun’. Really like the video though, very informative 👍🏼
Thank you for the pro tip. :D I am glad you enjoyed the video!

Interesting fact - Rene Levesque was born in Campbellton N.B. Same hospital as long time Mississauga mayor Hazel McCallion.

4 is bad luck in Chinese that's why the one in BC has no 4th floor .
Thank you very much! I did not know that.
4 in Chinese is pronounced the same way as for death. Thus bad luck.
Yep I guess it’s a common practice in Hong Kong to skip floor numbers like 4, 14, 24, 34, 40-49, etc. alongside of 13.
@@caesarzhang1778 Wow. So every number that has '4' in it. That is actually quite interesting.
@@AJMSTUDIOSvideo Yep. In Chinese 4 is basically read as 4 regardless of which digit it is on. For instance, 40 is literally read as "four tens" (instead of another specific word, like "forty" compared to "four", or like "quarante" compared to "quatre" in French). Thus whenever there's a 4 the number is avoided. You may find 15th floor above the 12th, or 50th above the 39th in some cases.
Interesting building information, I hadn't realized we had so many iconic building here in Canada.
Thank you! There are some incredible buildings indeed, most of which aren't the tall ones. :)
Background fact about Prince Edward Island: geologically, it is an oversized sandbar, so the ground cannot support a true high rise building as it would sink

Thank you! :D I have no idea why I wrote that line and then still spoke about Halifax later on! Oof! Human mistakes. Lol!
Very interesting 🤔
So good
The interesting thing that stood out the most was that most of these buildings were built in the 70s or 80s, why is that?
Yes! First off, thank you for watching the video. Canada's biggest building booms were during parts of the 1970s, and 80s. The 1970's was significant because it was a major era of 'modernization' for Canada. It was during this period the country began developing for the future, urbanizing, and growing upward. Some parts of Canada are booming right now, but growth isn't to the level it was in the past when it was occurring all over the country, instead of isolated areas. Great question!
Was looking at the list for BC, and realized I might get the chance to work on one of the next tallest buildings, which is honestly pretty sweet.
That is super cool! Good luck and imagine the beautiful views!
The Canso Strait Transmission Towers spanning between Port Hasten's, Cape Breton and Auld's Cove, NS are 180M tall. 2 new structure were completed in 2017 as part of the Maritime Link project. They are apparently the tallest transmission towers in Canada.
Thanks! Maybe I should make a video on transmission towers.... actually... probably no one would watch that. :( Thanks again! :)
That dead mall in yellow knife was super depressing
Well done!
Thank you.
Surprised you didn’t mention 201 Portage would be surpassed by 300 Portage in 2022 at 465 ft. Construction began in 2019.
At the time of making the video, I guess I wasn't aware of it? I'm not sure.
Really wish Calgary had gotten an honorable mention for Alberta. It may be true that Edmonton took the record for tallest building in Alberta. But literally like the next 5 tallest are all in Calgary.
Thank you for the comment. I am sure there will be more building talk on this channel, as it's something I truly enjoy. :) Happy new year.

And for so many years, Calgary had Edmonton beat.
@@AJMSTUDIOSvideo word that's why it's so shocking
There is also the tallest tower in Calgary Alberta, called the Brookfield Place with 56 floors at 810 feet tall.
I'm from Vancouver and I didn't even know our tallest building
Vancouver has height restrictions, and that's probably one reason Burnaby and Surrey will soon have taller buildings.
Can’t lie that was a great curveball lol
The CN Tower does have an outter-ring revolving restaurant, as does Calgary Tower. In the nighttime you can see the lights from Rochester. One word of caution, the bathrooms are situated in the stationary central area, which means you have to look for your table as the outter-ring slowly revolves. In itself, this is not a arduous task. However, in 2007 my boss, at the time, took 3 of us out to dinner. We stayed for quite a long time to continue our 'business talk.' We ended the night closing the restaurant with a bill of $1,950, covered by our company. As the night progressed it become more and more difficult in finding the table after each bathroom break. It must have been all that 'food' we ate, I guess! 😉
Wow very marvelous city
First Canadian Place and the Aon Tower were both designed by Edward Durell Stone.
Does anyone know the name of the song used in the mall part for Yellowknife ??
Of course! It is called "Generation Loss" by Dan Mason.

I think that there is no 4th floor in the Vancouver building because 4 is bad luck in China and there are many people from China in Vancouver.
In newly constructed buildings in Vancouver there is no 4th, 13th, 14th and 24th floor but the number 8th, 18th, and 28th are charged double the price due to Chinese superstition.
And in residential buildings the 4th unit is skipped.
Since you did put an antenna in there, what about Flin Flon's Smoke standing around 253.5 meters or 825 feet for Manitoba. That's double the height of any building in Winnipeg.
Yep. It's tall. As said in the beginning of the video and in the title though, this is only for buildings. Not structures. If this list was of the tallest structures by province, pretty much every single building would be overtaken by an antenna or smokestack in the eastern provinces. It would be a much more boring vid. ;D Haha!
Nice!
Thanks! :D
good video other than forgetting NS is part of Atl. Canada lmao. Thanks
Ahahah we are literally the most important part
Canada is very butiful city and rich city, nice location.
informative video
Calgary has a height restriction so the sun can melt the ice on the river.
Is that true? I've never heard that before, and if so, that's pretty cool!
There's a fairly new residential building on the corner of Preston and Carling in, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Check it out, its tall. I can almost see it from my house and my house is a few miles away.
Thanks, I will see if it's on the map services yet. :)
