This topic has been moved from General U.S. to city-vs-city which is the appropriate room for the subject. Note however, that per the room sticky, we have capped any new skyline threads for a while due an over-saturation of the subject.
Please keep this topic on exactly what it's about - what ONE BUILDING you'd remove from your city to, in your opinion, improve the appearance of the city. If it turns into a general skyline topics thread, it will have to be shut down, so stay specifically to the topic please.

In Boston the Prudential Tower is a hideoous example of a 1960's skyscraper, I can't stand that building. Also the museum towers (residential highrises by the Museum of Science) are very ugly. Boston doesn't have enough contemporary architecture. The new State Street building by South Station is nice, but many of Boston's skyscrapers are kinda blahzee, the Prudential being the worst.
One Shell Square in New Orleans is the tallest and is just a white box with no style. Wish it had more design thought in it.
