What are you talking about? statistics clearly show how Miami has the #3 spot when it comes to skyline size in the U.S.

but yes, indeed Miami's rapid growth of skyline has dramatically changed the point of view of many people that visited in 2006 and were not as impressed as if they visit now, however if people follow media it clearly portrayes Miami's current skyline and besides most people in city-data are skyscraper nerds so I'm pretty sure they very well know all about Miami's skyline.

The pic you posted for Austin is actually Houston...haha Austin's skyline is much, much smaller. I think I'd agree with you though!

But some people are stubborn and REFUSE to believe that, even though it's FACT.

Is it just me, or does most of the country not know anything about Rochester? The second I leave upstate ny, its like nobody's ever even heard of the city.
I never have visited Rochester, but I know what you mean about it being an afterthought when most people think of NYC or Buffalo when it comes to major NY state cities. And probably the hype for other parts of the state(i.e. Ithaca, Syracuse, etc.) helps overshadow it more.

Peoria and Fort Wayne suffer from the same problem(people being very unfamiliar with them), when it comes to Illinois and Indiana. And I've always imagined Green Bay would possibly be the same thing for Wisconsin, if it wasn't for the NFL Packers...
