When San Francisco is built out as planned, it's easily going to be the #3 skyline in the nation.

At this point its not a question of whether or not to build, it, but when to start-a very exciting time in that part of DT SF.

Also that's for the California high speed rail terminal right?
Actually the HSR is only one nearly a dozen transit agencies that will converge at the $4-$6 Billion terminal being built.

Los Angeles wins because it is taller and moderner. SF has more low-rises clustered together but that doesn't contribute to the skyline in my eyes.

I love your pride in Los Angeles, but my advise to you would be to maybe post 5 pictures max in a post. Posting 15+ photos gets obnoxious, slows many members computers down, and can defeat the whole purpose of what you are trying to show. They are beautiful pictures, but next time maybe pick your favorite five out of them.

I was so pissed they had the parade on a weekday, I would have gone if it was on a weekend.
