When we got there, the side of the building on the left was lit by a street lamp but the fronts of the buildings were dark. We turned our car headlights on and lit up the buildings and boats. The sunrise never really happened like we had hoped but it was a fun morning anyway. This was shot at 38mm.

You have captured a beautiful scene here - the light and the still reflections are very pretty... but the composition is a little cluttered. If you could fix that, this would be an awesome shot. :)
Beautiful colours, and very striking on first glance. The more I look at it though, the more that things start to bother me about it. The composition doesn't feel balanced and there is no clear point of focus amongst the buildings. The amount of negative space at the top of the shot feels a little superfluous. Although the horizon looks straight, the shape of the buildings in the water makes the photo feel like it is tilting to the left. One of the boats is blurry, I would have tried to make more of a feature out of this by making both boats very blurry. Here, it looks accidental. Nice contrast of warm and cool tones with your use of white balance though.
