There are some great parts of Toronto, but most of it is really sprawled out. And where they do have density it's often newer high rises with sterile streetscapes. For such a populated urban area, a lot of it feels pretty lifeless.

I'd take Montreal over Boston easy, and maybe Vancouver, but not Toronto.

Where do you live?

Western Mass at the moment. I go to Montreal more often than I go to Boston. NYC more often too.

"Maybe" Vancouver? Why maybe?

I'd take Vancouver > boston > montreal > Toronto.

Everything's too shiny and new.

Yeah. I probably take the old infrastructure for granted and would miss it. The pacific northwest is beautiful though.
