US Cities with Most Skyscrapers Built Over 300 Ft Since 2010 (best, downtown, size)

[Chi-town]

Thread running long enough to expand a tad.... still a fact a Nashville and Austin. Still have a good amount to catch up to the other booming longer cities just in the South.

This video from last month claims to give totals for 16 cities, by their total # (not just post-2010) of 300'+ buildings from the CBD 0-10 miles out and then 10-20 miles and 20-30 miles and combines that total. In the video.

I still see this thread is on booming Southern and Western cities to claim the Biggest boomin' since 2010 for bigger boys in the sky.

Southern Cities for full totals not just post-2010.... he has;

- Austin at ...#16 -- 51 total
- Dallas at .....#9 - 105 total
- Atlanta at ... #5 - 143 total
- Houston at . #4 - 161 total
- Miami at ..... #3 - 336 total

Nashville did not make his list.

Miami as the King Southern city of the skyscraper has 199 within the 10-miles and 137 to 30-miles. So in that it has by far the most outside the CBD and city limits basically too. Just among Southern cities.

Dallas - probably in total includes downtown Ft Worth with 11 listed to 30-miles out from the CBD of Dallas alone.

Atlanta - would include its other CBD's of Midtown next door to downtown and Buckhead 9-miles out in its 10-miles.

Houston - includes its other CBD's within main areas foe within 10-miles.

Got a kick out of the video maker staunchly defended in a comment that someone made to the video... that the list has to be wrong to place Atlanta above a LA and SF.
*** Is he on C-D LOL. Video maker defended totally Atlanta.....

The video maker claims to have included - "under-construction" 300'+ footers also. NO SOURCES GIVEN but for his many outdated skyline photos by source.

Miami by far wins in the Southern Region of the US and #3 overall.

Houston did beat Atlanta and Dallas here for Total. Lil old booming Austin came in #16. Probably, check it in a few years? Just big gap to overcome to others. Miami.... no way others are catching it.

This is a good video--fascinating. I would be curious to hear his sources, and if this is accurate.

Nashville is a newcomer on the skyscraper scene. They have 31-32 completed buildings over 300 feet, with another 7-8 under construction now, and more than 30 approved and proposed.

So I'd guess by 2030, Nashville could have another 25 completed, coming in around 55-60 over 300 feet high by then, or more.

Austin is also a newcomer on the skyscraper scene, and is a good 6-8 years ahead of Nashville with skyscraper development. Austin has the 51 cited in the video (if accurate), and another 6-8 under construction and 30+ approved and proposed.

All around though, wow, cities are exploding with skyscraper growth in the US. Miami is super impressive.

Nice video…thanks for finding and sharing. According to this #3 Miami is closer to #2 (Chicago, 429 total) than #4. Pretty strong showing overall for the entire South.

4. One Cardinal Way - 320 ft - 2020 (St. Louis)
5. One Hundred Above the Park - 385 ft - 2020 (St. Louis)

I'd imagine a substantial amount of people view Clayton as a functional part of St. Louis proper, so I see no problem with adding them together for metrics.

It's always been like that, people just tend to forget that in all the new construction buzz

Desipite their incredible vertical growth spurts at the end of the day Dallas, Atlanta, Houston, Miami are substantially larger & more established than Austin & Nashville and it's not likely either will catch that lot in our lifetimes

That's an awesome video.
If the stats are correct it gives us a rare chance for an apples to apples comparison.

Since just about all of NY and Chicago 's towers are within a 10 mile radius, using that gives us a good measure.

1. NY 1000+
2. Chicago 428
3. Miami 199
4 Houston 145
5. Atlanta 143

Still shows that in an apples to apples comparison, Miami is not on Chicago’s level. It is not yet that far above is southern peers. So all this talk recently of being near Chicago's level is a little premature.

Only in South Florida sprawl is praised.
Miami.

Yes San Antonio has more people than San Francisco but that is just because of how small San Francisco city limits are in relation to how big San Antonio's is.

I am actually happy this vid was posted. I have seen posters on here say that the only reason why Houston and Atlanta have a lot of skyscrapers is because they sprawl all over the place but the vid shows they basically have all within that 10 miles radius.

Like I said above, Miami can only sprawl north- south and that's what it's doing.

These are nice developments. Good heights and infill.

If Clayton's overall skyscraper and highrise developments over the course of history had happened in downtown St Louis, St Louis would have almost double the amount of skyscrapers, that it does today, I would imagine.

Which is much needed for downtown St Louis. It could use a nice development of 6 or 8 builldings in the range of 200-400 feet high or so.

Clayton has been a big opponent for the city of St. Louis that a lot of places wouldn't have to deal with, especially since in most cities Clayton would be a part of St. Louis proper, but it's also not just Clayton. The Central West End neighborhood, for example, has a number of skyscrapers and high rises, and it easily commands higher residential rents (at least in my experience) than downtown St. Louis. There's currently a 30 story skyscraper proposed to go in next door to 100 Above the Park, and it'll likely get completed before anything new in downtown. At least until Ballpark Village Phase III anyway.

Miami city proper is about to break ground on its first supertall tower (969+ feet or 300+ meters) and already has 8 others planned out. Miami getting its first ever supertall is going to start a super frenzy shortly after. That's just how things work down there.

Miami needs to be careful building too tall too fast. I know the area is sandwiched between the Atlantic and the Everglades and there is a lot of demand, but going from zero to 9 in a few years is astounding and at the same time gives me pause.
