Katarina could you please post something showing the Denver Tech Center which i think is by far the most impressive "other" skyline in Colorado. I simply don't know how to do it or i would. Thanks in advance!
Downtown Bellevue is a candidate for largest and most cohesive in less than a square mile. But wait until its 450' flat top is joined by some of the eight planned buildings that plan to use its new 600' zoning. Also, light rail arrives in 2023.
It's always a gray area what to consider suburban vs. urban. Using the city limits doesn't make much sense...Jersey City is only a little less "core NY" than DT Brooklyn or LIC for example. But Bellevue is clearly suburban...it was horse farms, blackberry bushes, and a little main street until after WWII, and much of its surroundings are still sprawly housing developments.
So with rail coming, would be good to buy a property now?

Bellevue is by far the only suburb that can compete with Buckhead, Atlanta. Of course, I know Buckhead is within the city of Atlanta, while Bellevue is its own city.
But Bellevue is, (as mentioned above) opening up higher limits, so we shall see 600 footers here soon. I think Bellevue and Buckhead are in some intense competition here. Perhaps the architectural style will be the difference.
I find it very interesting that most US suburban skylines are overwhelmingly office/ commercial highrises, which is very different from Canadian suburban skylines which comprise mainly tall apartment high rises.
Bellevue is a mix of commercial and residential. Its 450' flat top includes two condos, two condo-over-hotels, and one office. There are probably 20 residential highrises around 20 floors or more. The eight planned 600' towers include a couple residentials.
