Great photos. I certainly believe that the "urban canyon" is NOT LA's field of expertise, and if you are aware of LA's history there was a backlash in Los Angeles AGAINST urban canyons at the turn of the 20th century. Which is why for so many years LA never had a big skyline. It's almost like it's not LA's "style" to have such things lol
But still, those photos are beautiful and are a great representative of my favorite place on earth

The wide streets also lessen the 'canyon' effect to some extent.
I really like the view of Hollywood Blvd looking west towards Highland (a little bit of it shown in one of the above photos). It is sort of a mini-canyon.
I have one to add.. while not as impressive in height it's impressive to see the extent of the length of some of Philly's Urban canyons that only NY and Chitown can beat.
I think Houston is in the top 2 as far as urban canyons in the South. (if not 1, then 2)At least among the major cities. Maybe some of the smaller cities have urban canyons, but they wont have the height of Houston.
awesome pics. Yeah, Houston does have some nice Urban canyons.
