Oh yeah, I guess you conveniently forgot how you questioned my intelligence...that's where the capitalization comment came from. I love a selective memory.
I never questioned your opinions. I originally questioned your statement about spacing between buildings in Atlanta - THAT'S THE EXTENT OF IT. You have blown it into something else. Skylines have nothing to do with population density - they are about building density...totally separate topics. I tried to keep the discussion civil, but you proceeded to act as if I'm learning disabled. Don't expect to come at someone in that manner and not get a less than friendly response.
"Skylines have nothing to do with population density"? I beg to differ. Manhattan proves this point beyond reason, as does Chicago, Philly and many others. A lot of building's in those cities I just listed, are residential condo or apt buildings. And they do 'effect' the skyline, cause they're large, and sometimes very appealing, and add dramatically to the skyline!
You think Trump's building's in NYC or Chicago doesn't add to their "skyline's?

Highrise condo and apartment buildings obviously add to the overall population density of a city. But population density and building density are two separate subjects. One does not depend on the other.
You are simply arguing just to argue. What is your point? Atlanta and Seattle, like many other U.S. cities, have tons of residential towers.

Atlanta has "tons of residential towers"? Really? I know NYC and Chicago can claim this, but Atlanta?

Yes...but I'm not here to prove anything to someone who constantly questions everything I post. Find out for yourself if you don't know.
I actually said Seattle and Atlanta have tons of residential towers...but you only question the Atlanta part. For the record, I never said either city had more than NYC or Chicago - those cities were never mentioned by me.
Yes, skylines have nothing to do with population. What don't you understand about that statement? There aren't any large words involved.
A city can easily have a large skyline with a small population (Miami) or a small skyline with a large population (San Jose). Does that help?
Correction, skylines don't have anything to do with population when you're talking about "SPRAWLED" cities (Atlanta). Phoenix proves this point also......
Miami's skyline is made up with a majority of residential condos. Miami is very unique in this sense. The people who 'snow bird' there is a big reason for this. Condos are much safer and easier to leave empty for months at a clip compared with a single family or townhouse.

Thank you, no. I've traveled all over the world...lived in Europe for a year and taught school there. I don't need an education from you.
I gave you two solid examples of how skylines do not depend on population. No comment on that?
Sorry, but your so-called theory has been 'disproven'..... (again)
