Good choice! This is the tallest building in Port-au-Prince, the Digicel building, right after the earthquake hit (it faired okay!). It's a big building, but I agree that it doesn't deserve the title of skyscraper.

I don't think that's the case at all. How is it being ruined? It looks far better now than it did 15 years ago.

False. Only if you work for English Heritage. Everyone I know loves London's new skyline(s). It's added a new dimension to the city.
