Downtown skyline of Minneapolis.You could stack the 3 tallest buildinds on top of each other and they wouldn't equal Burj Khalifa in Dubai, towering over 2,700 ft.

@jplindgren1956 Yup Buffalo is pretty sad skyline wise and I hate to say it but as a large city its pretty crappy as well. The Chicago Spire would of been freaking amazing! Hopefully it'll get built. Can't argue your top 5, just the order of them 1. Chicago 2. New York 3. Hong Kong 4. Shanghai 5. Dubai with Tokyo & Toronto at 6 & 7. People tell me I'm biased on the top 2 because I've been to them but while 3,4 & 5 may have taller buildings I still prefer the skyline silhouettes of Chitown & NYC

@vejet Toronto has an awesome skyline. I have been to Chicago. Incredible. Buffalo has a pitiful skyline. Google Chicago Spire. Planned but hasn't happened yet. My top skylines...1. Hong Kong 2. New York 3. Chicago 4. Dubai 5. Shanghai

@m1kewithaone I have never cared for the skyline in LA. I do like the US Bank Tower (1,018 ft). Way to many post modern boxes though. We have fewer big towers but way more imagination.

@jplindgren1956 I was born and raised in Buffalo but I moved north of the boarder to Toronto many years ago for a job opportunity. Yes I'm into architecture as well, although I'm not too familiar with their work I'm certainly aware that Cesar Pelli, I.M. Pei & Phillip Johnson are all world renewed architects. I follow the local seen more closely since Toronto is currently undergoing a large building boom. My favorite city would have to be Chicago, it never ceases to amaze me every time I visit.

@vejet Thank you. Yes, a good midwestern skyline with a combination of mid and hirises. Many renowned architects have buildings here, if you are into that. Cesar Pelli, I.M. Pei, Phillip Johnson to name a few. Where do you live?

That's cool how you put in the heights like that. Yeah Minneapolis doesn't have anything close to the Burj Khalifa, but its still got a pretty decent skyline.
