I guess it depends what you'd call a skyscraper...Boston has a big downtown, it's just not extremely tall. I think Philly has a better skyline than Boston, but we're not too bad.
Yes you are right and we do have a huge downtown but I cant say there both great
Both have big downtowns, but Philly has more height and more distinctive buildings, including the famous One and Two Liberty Place. I think it's an iconic American skyline. Boston's doesn't stick out for me other than density.
I'm not seeing the Philly skyline thing here. There are a couple of very tall buildings and a couple of intermediate height buildings and that's it.
It has to be one of the least impressive skylines of the big 25 in America. At least from the pictures.
Does someone have any impressive Philly skyline photos? I just need more convincing as to why Philly bests Boston. Besides numbers.
Awesome pics! Perhaps the best I've seen of Boston's skyline.
In the pic above, is that Alewife in the foreground/center?
