Speaking of nice skylines


Denver is a nice one, I have a rooftop and enjoy it a lot, and it’s really cool on clear day driving back from the airport watching the city slowly expand. That being said I think it meets the median expectation and does not exceed it. It’s like Dallas in that way. Dallas has a fine skyline but not an exceptional one. There’s not a building that really stands out in either city. I’m happy to have that view but none of the buildings amaze me. The best building view from my rooftop is the Capitol Building, which is obviously well below many of those buildings.

That is shitty, especially for a city that populated.



Well what would you consider Phoenix or San Diego?

No mention of Washington D.C. I know it has restrictions on building heights, but the city has 700k and metro has over 6 million. Basically it’s just the Washington monument and the capitol.

Our skyline is nothing to write home about, but the backdrop is outstanding...

I'm pretty sure a lot of European cities have codes and laws about buildings that can go up. I know it's like that in Vienna. To preserve historical neighborhoods and landmarks.

IMHO, Pittsburgh might be the most underrated city in the U.S.

It’s a bunch of yinzer trash. I like it, but would never live there. Good ole boy network.

Downtown Columbus at night

Columbus is more of the insurance location, and it is a pretty boring skyline

nternationally has to be Karachi, Pakistan. The world's 12th largest city has only one building over 700 ft tall.


Not sure who would want to be a building much taller than two stories that is in Karachi, Pakistan.
