I personally love the work Austin is doing to it's downtown. Take a picture of Austin's skyline in 2004 and then compare it a decade later in 2014, and you'll see how it's dramatically different.

Oklahoma City building the supertall is a good sign for OKC, especially recently when they got OKC Thunders. They're making head way as a leader in growth, I hope they continue to do the work to break through and become a large city like Charlotte, Austin, and Columbus.

I really love the idea that Cincinnati is getting a tall building. I think you of all people will know how I truly feel about Cincy, you've seen my posts in the past. I really believe that Cincy is a VERY underrated city, and it's often forgotten about. I hope they continue to revitalize their skyline and city as well, and can follow in Pittsburgh's footsteps.

Charlotte is a rather impressive city, the amount it's grown in the 1990's to present day is probably something no one would've predicted in 1950. I really like their skyline, when I see pictures of it, I get the vibe that it's somewhat like a mix between Philadelphia's and Atlanta's. I don't know if anyone else feels that way, but that's just my personal opinion on Charlotte. Great cityscape!

I agree it looks like Philly and ATL's kid.

So what if Cleveland is over KC. Cleveland's skyline is better than KC's anyway. Cleveland is above KC because it has more buildings, read the OP's post.

That doesn't mean it looks better, sure Cleveland has acouple nice buildings and they kind of stand out, but different angles of the KC skyline you'll get a completely different perspective of it's size. Plus we all know Cleveland sucks.

LOL Cleveland beats KC in just about everything. Cleveland has a hell of a lot more angles than KC does, what go take in some views from the cornfields! In Cleveland you have the lake, the lakefront, and areas from the lakefront parks and beaches.

In reality, KC sucks, GHETTOkc!

Troll!

You know nothing about Cleveland. I was just in KC about two months ago, it's downtown was dead, and can't even compete with Cleveland on cultural levels. I am in Cleveland now on business.

I know the Browns stink, and the Indians smell liek poo!
...and I know that your skyline is overrated, and Cleveland is filled with Ohio sillynannys. Now you go to bed, you need some much needed beauty sleep, troll!
