Its a satellite City , but has a Suburban Feel to it, compared to its monster NYC Neighbor.

New Brunswick,NJ - its more of a Suburban city.

For the state of New Jersey it would actually be a very important city though. Haha, I feel sorry for New Jersey more than any other state, most of it is counted as a suburban area for New Yorkers and Pennsylvanians.

Well I am not sure you should feel to sorry, it is the wealthiest and most highly educated state in the nation. I guess a study in sprawl nearly 9 million people and no major city (though Newark just about anywhere else would be a mid-major but it is so close to NYC; from the NJ turnpike you look left and see the newark skyline, and to the right is Manhatten and Jersey city; really nothing like that area from a pure volume of skyline, and numerous ones in view to boot.)

Truth to your words, it is a rich state. But from a site I saw a few weeks ago, didn't Maryland take over as the wealthiest state? Anyway's whether it be first or second, it doesn't make much of a difference, it beats out 48-49 other states.
But yeah, it would have been nicer if Newark and Jersey city got their own fame instead of always being tied with NYC, but it's not in anyone's control or anyone's fault.

Dallas' Telecom Corridor is nice. I think Broomfield's (Colorado) Omni Interlocken is a nice, modest, NEW skyline (although it is rather spread out at this point in time) Interlocken Panorama by ~eon-krate32 on deviantART

I'd post photos, but as soon as I link the photos the moderators will remove it since it's against city-data policy. Unfortunately I'm not a photographer and I don't have any of my own photos to post. If I did it would be the following DC suburbs - Rosslyn, Ballston, Clarendon/Courthouse, Crystal City, Bethesda, Silver Springs, Tysons Corner, and a few others...
how long have you lived here? it's silver Spring with one S.

Default Sunny Isles Beach and Miami Skyline Beyond

This isn't even all of Sunny Isles Beach's buildings over 500 feet tall. There are three more on the beachfront just to the right in this photo.
