Found this cool shot out of Dallas. Imagine Dallas skyline when these two master piece bridges over the trinity are finished. Very Impressive!!!!By the way the pictures are awesome I love both DAL & LA night skylines.
For me, nothing will ever be able to match my hometowns skyline. I love the Library Tower. Its my favorite building in the world! So many happy memories too. We found my cat at a parking garage just below the Library Tower. I loved to watch the crown of the building light up purple and gold when the Lakers were in the playoffs. I loved the look of the skyline at night when I would finish up at my favorite Korean BBQ resturant on Vermont and James M. Woods full of Soju and my wife and I would sit in the parking lot and stare at it for hours until we were sober enough to drive home. I remember the field trip in 4th grade we took when they had just completed the Library Tower and how it was going to be the tallest building on the West Coast.
Ahhh...now Im really sad. There just wont ever be a city skyline that I prefer over LA. Im a softie and a sentamentalist I guess.

I think that LA's skyline is pretty pathetic for a city of its size, but due to the history of how the city developed, I sort of understand. But Houston is built in a similar fashion and has a more impressive skyline to me.
However, I've always thought there was something "missing" from Dallas' skyline. I think because it's a bit too short. Isn't there a height limit due to its proximity to Love Field? And the S&L and Oil crash in the 1980s really put a stop to Dallas' skyline + the extremely high occupancy rate in DT Dallas, so there hasn't really been an incentive to build more towers.
And I've always found the lighting for the B of A tower and the Renaissance tower to be kind of tacky, but that's just me. I think that I would like the lighting for the B of A tower was blue instead of green, or if it lit up in a similar fashion to the towers in Miami, I'd like it better. And the Renaissance tower's lit up "X" pattern at night offends my aesthetic sensibilities some kind of bad. They should've just let well enough alone when it was renovated in the 80's (the added communications tower is decent though).
But Dallas' skyline looks better at night.
