You know what is even crazier, if they went out to 40 miles, they would have captured another 26 alone in New Brunswick. 14 in the East Brunswick/North Brunswick/Somerset area and the rest in the other half of Stamford, Norwalk. Asbury Park and Dover. Perhaps another 100 more.
What's the height minimum for purposes of this list? 300 ft right? If so, Fort Lee has three. The Modern's two towers (~500 ft.) right next to the GWB, and the Palisades right on the Edgewater border. You also have the Galaxy towers in Guttenberg which are over 400 ft.

Definitely not 300', the numbers are far too high for that. I don't even think 100' would be as common as this list indicates.

For this youtube video list I posted yesterday, I was wondering the same thing--what height does it start out at for these buildings?
Looking at the count for Nashville, for example (74), I follow that city pretty closely, and know that they have--for buildings over 300 feet completed--33, and under construction 8 right now (over 300 feet). So in the over 300 feet category, that totals 41 completed.
So I'm thinking the leftover total amount (74 minus 41) of 33 consists of buildings between 150 - 300 feet, at least that is my guess. Which sounds about right for Nashville, totalling 33, in that specific range.
It may go as low as 100 feet though, but if that were the case, the NYC numbers should be much higher, I would think.

Id say 30 meters? Maybe 50 meters? 75 feet (The definition of a high rise)?
*Nashville will have passed Charlotte by 2025 with their continuing boom
*Austin has bolted up past so many cities in the past decade or so, the growth is unbelievable
*Miami has surged past Chicago to claim the #2 spot in the US
*NYC is super far out of reach and in the lead, which I imagine it will keep, over the next 60-70 years+ at least

Here are the criteria according to video:
Highrise for buildings 50m to 99m
"Skyrise" for buildings 100m - 149m
Skyscraper for buildings 150m-299m
"Starscraper" for buildings 300m and greater
buildings 50m+ built or uc to be completed between 2001-2025
city center 0-10 miles 10-20 miles 20-30 miles
20 Minneapolis 51 1 0 = 51
19 Tampa 39 15 11 = 65
18 Charlotte 65 0 0 = 65
17 Nashville 74 0 0 = 74
16 Las Vegas 78 0 0 = 78
15 San Diego 81 0 0 = 81
14 Denver 87 4 0 = 91
13 Los Angeles 83 10 4 = 97
12 Austin 99 0 0 = 99
11 Philadelphia 94 4 4 = 102
10 Dallas 105 20 11 = 136
9 San Francisco 137 1 0 = 138
8 Boston 163 0 0 = 163
7 Washington, DC 161 5 0 = 166
6 Seattle 163 2 5 = 170
Assuming that the video numbers claimed are at least in the ballpark -
*Chicago is still the #2 in the total number of highrise buildings in the US and will comfortably remain so for the forseeable future.
* Miami built more "highrises" outside its city center than any other metro by a wide margin - implying further densification outside of its core.
* *I argue that no city skyline changed more dramatically this century between 2001-2023 than Miami. In that time frame it added 46/50 of its tallest (all more than 600') and 88/100 of the tallest more than 30 stories - all within the city of Miami
The amount still being built is still astounding in number and the height. There are at least 10+ super talls planned https://www.thenextmiami.com/the-202...nned-in-miami/
I am confident that as far as high rise and especially skyscraper building is concerned there are currently more uc in Miami's metro than any other outside of NY.

I agree. These cities will shakeup the lineup in the coming years. Nashville will continue to pass several cities in its peer group. Charlotte might surprise us with a new tallest. Austin is still booming. NYC is king. Miami is finally giving decent architecture.
The area of the core municipality isn't necessarily relevant. Typically the vast majority of highrises are in any city's greater downtown area. Seattle would be about 164 out of the 170 new ones for example.
