I really think Toronto pushes Chicago for the second best skyline in North America.

Especially with that atrocious red CNA Plaza building which ruins the Chicago skyline for me.

My wife and I took that tour this summer and it was awesome. We also did the sky line tour in what used to be the Sears Tower.

It's top 5 for me, lots of new skyscrapers. This photo doesn't cover half of it.

I don't doubt it, there are a ton of them.

Albuquerque, while shitty in a lot of ways, does have a nice skyline with the Sandias wrapping around:

Old Skyline of New Orleans...

The Hibernia Bank building was the tallest building until 1963 when the Plaza Tower was built..

Why the tiny skyline for Albuquerque? Seems like a decent sized city to have such a small skyline.

It's just spread out and sprawling:



Pretty much subdivision after subdivision with random shopping centers all on a grid system.

San Diego.

Photo illustrates the recreational water, naval presence, proximity to mountains as well as the downtown.

Could be wrong, I think Miami has the largest skyline in the world per capita. And the third largest skyline in America with 300 “high rises”
