Austin is going through a building boom like Dallas and Houston did in the 80s. Unfortunately, a lot of it was not completed due to the 80s savings and loan crash. Dallas would’ve had a supertall and Houston would’ve had a few of them.
And the funny coincidence is that the Austin metro is around the same population the Dallas metro was back then.
Charlotte currently has 5 buildings under construction over 300 ft.. by the end of the year that number is expected to be 9-10.
The skyline is expanding dramatically southward and the SouthEnd area will have its own sizeable skyline of its own.
In Charlotte, most of the projects aren't publicized until they are literally almost ready to start construction. Apparently, there are than there are many more 30/40+ story towers planned in the SouthEnd area.
Basically, South End will be Charlotte’s version of Uptown Dallas or Midtown Atlanta? I can see it becoming that due to its adjacency to Uptown Charlotte. I did a search of South End and this is what I found. It looks like a good amount of construction is happening.

Yes, and Charlotte's skyline is becoming very linear, like Atlanta.
Currently, SouthEnd has 2 buildings above 300 ft. By 2025, SouthEnd should have 11-12 buildings above 300 ft and more large scale projects are coming to the area in the future.

Charlotte is looking super impressive--and the growth is amazing. I think Charlotte is headed in the right direction, and their rail system will only help density and skyscraper growth.
If all proposals pan out this will be the list of 500+ footers in Austin, Texas as of today:
Building Floors Total Height - feet
Independent 58…690
Austonian 56…683
Fairmont 37…595
Block 185 (Google tower 2) 35…594
360 44…581
44 East 49…573
Indeed Tower 36…542
Hanover Republic Square 44…516
Frost 33…516
The Travis 52…594
Waterline 73…1022
6th and Guadalupe 65…874
The Republic 47…710
321 West 58…675
Modern Austin 55…658
415 Colorado 47…640
Hanover Brazos Street 45…513
River Street Residences 42…500
Conrad Residence 62…755
Block 16 43…616
Ritz Carlton Hotel & Resid 64…802
Perennial Tower 47…628
6th and Rio Grande 53…610
80 Rainey 49…567
62 East Ave 48…529
305 South Congress (Tower 6)…525
410 East 5th 71…859
3rd & San Jacinto (Tower 1) 42…540
3rd & San Jacinto (Tower 2) 55…707
Phase II Perennial Tower 65…766
This list is ridiculously impressive! If 50% get built that is still incredibly booming, and any city would love to have a fraction of Austin's construction.
Nashville has 14-15 skyscrapers approved, proposed or under construction, over 400 feet high. Then there's another 25-30 over 300 feet high.
Pretty brisk proposals in the pipeline for both cities. Although Austin is clearly way in the lead.

Any sites not U/C should not even be considered for discussion. It's all fantasy, especially, given WFH's impact and global economic issues.
That’s fair. I’m not even sure if everything that’s planned in Dallas will actually happen.

The first pic is a picture of the planned project in Uptown Dallas (much of this was previously post in other threads)

The video is a flyover with a partial view of Uptown.
The cleared lot next to 23Springs is the location of 2811 Maple (372 ft), which hasn’t officially started construction. The 2nd pic (@ 2:23) is the Maple Terrace development (240 ft) which is now a few floors above ground.
This is a picture of what I was trying to find on the internet but end up using the video instead. I took this one myself today because I couldn’t find a recent picture of all the 300+ ft towers added to the skyline. The high-rise U/C in the Uptown area is Harwood No. 14 (388 ft).
