Yes, we do need each other. If Dallas and Fort Worth was separated we wouldn't have DFW airport and the largest Metro in Texas.

The Metropolitan population wouldn't be in the top 10 if they didn't have each other!

Haha on the General US and City vs City forums on CD people would consider population to be a HUGE factor. In fact half of the threads made are about population!

But what about Fort Worth Water Gardens?
TCU?
AMR Headquarters?

Those are from the top of my head. lol

We would have love field..which would probably be big as DFW rite now if we didnt have fort Worth....same for Ft.Worth and the airport over there...And we once was the second largest city in the state....not anymore...but nothing has changed since we are not second anymore...so having the biggest anything really means nothing.

I love how Houston responds to their demand with one at a time. A very good money saving strategy. Miami, not so much lol.

You love how Houston responds to their demand?? What, do you think the city council voted on building an office tower??? ....thats funny.
Miami's construction boom was mainly condo towers not office buildings. By the way, Miami now has the third best looking and most massive skyline in the US.
