I really wish, and hope they get some more buildings in there. They have a great style, like Houston & Dallas can have Texas's glass gleamers, and Austin too. San Antonio having the traditional style would be a nice change. I hope they get more taller buildings though!

Fort Worth & El Paso, they need to STEP UP their game even more than San Antonio does.

At least Fort Worth has taller buildings than El Paso and San Antonio.

Fort Worth's tallest building
Burnett Plaza
40 stories
567 ft

They are taller than San Antonio? Holy...

See if I could, I would donate Downtown Dallas & TMC skylines to Fort Worth and El Paso.

I cannot picture El Paso with a big skyline.

I can. They have a great mountain backdrop to support one. Those people really need to get on Texas pace and start.

I think San Antonio is doing a decent job, but needs more.

Fort Worth, I can only hope, that skyline is not fit for America's 16th largest city.

Fort Worth would look good with a skyline like Dallas.

Did anyone mention Brooklyn? Manhattan's always stealing the spotlight lol. Sure it's not it's own city, but it once was.

How bout Cincinnati. They are just finishing up the new tallest building in cincy there, and when that tower is up it will be a beautiful skyline.
