It's that time of year again! Rounding up another busy year of city building, we are returning with our sixth annual UrbanToronto Year-End Readers' Poll, giving you the chance to vote on your favourite new buildings completed over the last 12 months. This year, we are back with 44 newly completed projects spread across the city.

This year's candidates have been grouped into height ranges, giving you the chance to pick a favourite in each grouping. We have split them into… Favourite Building from 6 to 9 storeys; Favourite Building from 10 to 19 storeys; Favourite Building from 20 to 29 storeys; Favourite Building from 30 to 39 storeys; and Favourite Building 40 storeys and above.

At the bottom of this article you will find a link to the poll, but first, we'll take a quick look at this year's qualifying buildings by group, presenting thumbnail images. Links to each project's Database file and Project Forum thread will bring you to where you can see more about each buildings, if you are not familiar enough with them.
