I know it isn't as large as some cities, but it's growing, something some cities can't say about theres.

4.5/10, not very nice:)

I'd give it a 4. No height, but I do like the setting.

Even for its skyline, I've seen smaller cities with bigger skylines such as Ontario (California), Tacoma, and Spokane... 3/10

I am not very impressed by this one. Seems quite boring.. Looks a little bit like simcity 2000 ;)

beautiful city, but it's skyline is not great.

5/10. ;)

7/10 just because it's my city.

It would be nice if we could have a few 500+ footers, maybe around downtowns central core. That area seems to be lacking.

The surroundings are very impressive , the city looks like ****

umm the mountains are nice :) 4/10

X-seed 4000, you're joking, right? How can you say Spokane and Tacoma have larger skylines than Salt Lake City? Maybe the photos don't show how tall the buildings are, but I can tell you right now SLC's skyline is bigger than those two cities, as I'm sure it's bigger than Ontario, California, though I couldn't find stats on their skyline.

First, the Wells Fargo Center, the tallest in SLC, is 423' feet, whereas the tallest in Tacoma is 337' feet and the tallest in Spokane is 288' feet. Moreoever the second tallest in SLC, the LDS Office Building at 419' feet, is taller than Tacoma's second tallest, at 245' feet. It's also taller than Spokane's second tallest at, 259' feet.

I could go on, but I believe you're getting the point, no?

Anywho, I do agree Salt Lake's skyline isn't the greatest. But for a city of only 181,000 I do think it's doing very well and will grow even more in the coming future. During the 90's Salt Lake City saw three of its 5 tallest built, and I'm sure by 2010 we'll see at least two more skyscrapers gracing the skyline, either built or under construction.

I don't think it's as bad as a 3.0, because it does have buildings, but to each their own I guess.

The city looks quite nice, not the worlds nicest towers but as a whole the city itself looks ok and the setting is good, so i give it an average 6.

This city really needs a signature tower... enough with all the flat rooflines. I really like the WF tower. ->5/10

It's allright, but it could be better since the metro is around one million, plus it's a capital city, and it pretty much is the hub of everything in Utah. 4.5/10

Jeff, if all goes well the new 600' foot Social Hall Plaza will be the tower to define the skyline.

I wouldn't get your hopes up. That tower has about a 10% chance of getting approved, let alone going up...

Extrm, I don't know where you got your numbers but I talked with the Downtown Alliance and they said that even though the plans were put on hold they're still banking on the tower going up if vacancy rates drop, which they're sure to do. So I still have hopes.

Sean, how can this project possibly continue, if the company the was going to build it went bankrupt?

it'd look a whole lot better with a 500 footer or two.... is it really growing though?? skyscrapers.com currently doesn't list anything as U/C.... still I think it is a nice, quite place to live.....

Sean, Hehe sorry. I haven't seen many pictures of Salt Lak city and 2 of the pictures didn't show (My favorite ones) If I could edit my vote, I'd give it a 5... not much but its a big percentage increase :D

It's ok, just wanted to show you that our skyline isn't as small as Spokane or Tacoma.

Sean, how can this project possibly continue, if the company the was going to build it went bankrupt?

There is a difference between going bankrupt and filing for Chapter 11. They're still a company that only filed for Chapter 11 on SOME of their property, not all of it. Therefore they still have the plans on hold for the tower.

And nothing is under construction, but two towers are proposed for downtown. Once the vacancy rates drop they'll start construction on the Main Street Tower for sure. Not clear if the other tower will get off the ground, it's on hold right now.

Who was it you talked to, that is with the Downtown Alliance?

His name is Bob Farrington. And I got an e-mail from him this morning. Though the guy still has an option on the land, it looks like (to Farrington) that there is zero chance the building will go up. At least thats what the e-mail said. So, sadly it's all over for me.....lol

I don't even see a skyline... 3/10

Hey Sean, would you mind if you sent that e-mail my way?

I'll send both e-mails he sent me. They're not long and in fact, the last one I got is only a few words. But yeah, I need your e-mail...PM me it.

Of coarse one would say that coming from a city like Toronto.

i like it having a mountain on the back ground esp during winter.
we don't have ice-capped on the background of makati skyline in my home country...
i'll give it a 7.0/10!

u guys...try looking at Makati (http://skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=17199) skyline! not quite known but a real GREAT one...

Just send me to hell or to SLCity - really old architecture - one or two buildings only more modern - this is not skyline, this is crap. I can give below 3/10

I'm more impressed with the potential this city has than anything it currently has built. 7/10.

short doesnt mean bad...
i think its a very nice city, it also reminds me of adelaide..

7/10. While the skyline itself isn't that unique, it's surroundings make it something to look at.

pretty nice skyline. For a city not known for a good skyline.

7.5/10

Bleh 5

Pretty nice skyline, I don't think it's bad
8/10

Skyline is a bit plain but in a good setting... 5/10

SLC's skyline doesn't exactly propel me out of my rocking chair, I must admit. All is sort of so-so, nice, mumble. For a skyline, it's mighty ragged. But the setting rocks! :rock:

Hope they build that Social Hall tower to give the place some character. 5.0

.......i think UCSD has a bigger skyline than that

6/10

I was in salt lake last month. One of the most beautiful cities i've ever been to. As far as skyline i'd give it 5/10. Its really is not as bad as its looks. As a matter of fact its looks pretty cool @ night if your traveling up I-15 north, there is a lot of color to the skyline @night.

:ohno: 5/10

mmmm....
Needs more skyscrapers. 5/10

5/10


It could be better.

Not really impressive, beautiful or memorable... nice city... but the skyline has no impact

Let's see if SLC can win over some friends with these pics:

EDIT: I've changed the pictures to ones I've taken

http://s91928162.onlinehome.us/MAY/SLC1.jpg
http://s91928162.onlinehome.us/Pano2DT.jpg

Nice compact
Some density even across the city
Mostly Box but good cladding on most
No real talls to offer contrast or make a skyline impact
Needs a few feature towers to draw attention to middle
Back Drop what Can say : WOW
Skyline low rate at 4

I fly (well not literally) over this city quite a few times. By the looks of these photos, I'm glad I'm 30000 ft up.

5

Haha, its funny to see the replys... Yeah, its not new york or Hong Kong... but I think its nice. Most of the skyscrapers are in the 300-400 foot range building it a nice base for the skyline, and once a couple of 500 and 600'ers go in Its going to be great! Itll probably look like Denver'ish with our own little flavor.

Look at Denver, pre 1980, that city wasn't anything special (and it was about the same size as Salt Lake City is right now) then an intense 5 year span of building gave it a nice skyline. Im not saying the exact same thing will happen with SLC, but skylines change quick, and SLC has a nice base, preparing it for its boom. :)

7/10

ok,so ill rate SLC based on little rock arkansas. I gave little rock a 8. So ill tell yall what i think the pros are, i like the fact that there is alot of buildings(if not all skyscrapers) and ofcourse the setting. Cons, in little rock they have atleast one 500footer and the metro population is waaay under 1 million. thats all.


6/10

The building with the copper looking roof looks like the building in Roanoke, Va

7.5/10

I do like it, 7/10, but it could use some color;)

I have been to this city MANY times. Its hard to judge by these photos...it looks MUCH better in person. Though there isn't much height there are quite a lot of unique buildings downtown.

I give it an 8.

Well I'm biased since SLC was the first real city I ever saw as a child. I love the Wells Fargo Center and Gateway Tower West, although for that size range, GTW is my favorite skyscraper. I think both should have been taller.

There are many decently sized surface parking lots and a few small rundown buildings downtown that would be a perfect place for a signature 500+ footer tower with a parking garage. SLC is poised to grow when the economic demand returns. Hamilton Partners will be a nice addition to the skyline. It should only be slightly shorter than One Utah Center across the street (the one with a Copper Pyramid on top). Also Gateway Tower East will be getting a much needed facelift soon, and will no longer be the ugliest building in SLC.

I give SLC an overall 7.5/10


Here is a rendering I made with one of Sean Reynolds Photos to show how much nicer SLC could be with a signature tower or two.

below 3

You haven't been able to find any evidence of Ontario, CA.'s skyline because, unless their hiding it from the locals, it's non-existant. SLC has a terriffic skyline for a city it's size.

It's pretty good city but it's have a little skyline. I think Salt Lake could have much more scrapers. 7/10

Its ok.5/10

Sean Reynolds stfu face it Salt Lake city is the crapper of the universe and it will never be anything but the crapper of the universe if someone was gonna give the world and ennema they would stick it in salt lake city 1/10

I was expecting much more 4.5/10

Looks boring...SLC has got a quite good image, but surely not because of the skyline...

I think, you are honestly right. Iggmasta!

Well aint that a pity.

May I ask why you don't like the skyline?

small little skyline with normal looking midrise buildings give it a 4

Rayman, wanna know why it's a small skyline? Because the city isn't that big.

I really don't understand some of your logic here. Compared to NYC, does SLC have a skyline? No. But compare it to cities its size and most can't even compare.

In contrast, Nashville is about the size of Salt Lake City.

Compare......then get back to me.

And no this isn't an attack on Nashville, but I really believe Salt Lake has not only a bigger skyline, but a nicer one as well.

But I guess you're all welcome to your opinion.

small cities have ugly skylines, and those buildings look way normal to me, I give it a 4 because it's just plain boring, ok am sorry if I hurt your feelings or anything but common what's so special about this?? I can't see anything that makes me get impressed or even feel a little bit touched so it deserves a 4 or less :D

Sean Reynolds II, don't mind Rayman. He just doesnt know what he is talking about:lol:3000

yes I do :laugh:

:lol:

You didn't hurt my feelings. But I wanna know what you define as boring? By that logic 90% of American cities are boring because their skyscrapers tend to look the exact same over and over.

:laugh:

You didn't hurt my feelings. But I wanna know what you define as boring? By that logic 90% of American cities are boring because their skyscrapers tend to look the exact same over and over.

I would say about 60-70% of americas skyline is boring

NY and chicago is ofcourse nice seattle,minneapolis looks allright too + some other cities

but Iowa,tucson,salt lake city,jacksonville,miami, portland(got a nice snowy mountain though) etc etc doesn't look good at all and are considered boring skylines to me

Iowa is a state, not a city, and maybe you should look at some photos of Jacksonville, Miami, and Portland.

i did , they look cheap and tacky

and Bangkok doesnt? haha

haha all I can say is that you never been there so your downrate on Bangkok makes me laugh :laugh: rate salt lake city higher than Bangkok , haha really stupid thing, imagine that you rate that oslo (capital of norway) has better skyline than shanghai , then you know what a big fool you are :righton:

You have probably never been to Portland, Jacksonville, and Miami! Skylines don't have to be big to be beautiful. It's form and how it is layed out.

miami is not beautiful layed out, it looks like mexico or something

setting looks interesting but not the skyline
5/10

skyline? 5/10

I don't know what jtown,man is talking about, but Salt Lake has a metro of roughly 1.5 million people, nothing to scoff at. I give it a 10, since I live in a suburb of slc, and its one of my favorite cities, so there.

I gave it an 8, because it is in the northwest. I know what you all are thinking: 'that is stupid' or 'stupid northwesterner'. It is sort of a dumb reason, but everyone in the USA thinks that the only city in the NW is Seattle. That is not true. I am sort or jealous of the skyline, because my home state's best skyline is Boise. Nuff said. I don't mean to offend anyone

Considering how small Salt Lake City is compared to others without any skyline whatsoever, I'd give this a 7/10. It's functional, and the natural backdrop is astounding.

I give it a 5. To small.

What is the population of SLC? I've seen from 180K to 1.2M on this thread. I hope city planners are going to build higher density than sprawling out because the surrounding area is beautiful and it would be a shame to see that region continue to suburbanize to the far reaches. For now, I give it a 5.

ive always liked this one...7/10

SLC has mediocre skyline. Definitely needs taller buildings to be legit. The mountains in the background definitely are nice though. Not many cities have such a great backdrop. If you like mountains in the background check out Cape Town, South Africa. SLC and CT have similar background and buildings.

Beautiful!

^ Beautiful mountains, bland skyline.

7.5/10. I like this city even though it doesn't have huge buildings. I go there about once a year to visit family. Its a pretty nice city.

6/10

I like the density and setting. I give it a 7.

Those pictures don't do SLC justice. It's much nicer than those pictures show. But you are right...the mountains are spectacular. SLC is often called a very beautiful city.

Bad pix. Sorry.

7/10, because I here it is a nice city, but the skyline could use a few more modern buildings. Certainly no Denver.

Skyline is OK, but rather average for American city. 7/10

Ok....Salt Lake City is a city where I wouldn't live in. Pretty much the let down of the whole thing is the skyline. The city itself is also a letdown for me. Wouldn't bother...3/10.

8/10 nice city

lil bit boring
still a 7

I live in Salt Lake City and it's not the greatest skyline. It has high density, but they're not tall enough and it needs more color. The skyline is quite nice close up driving down Main Street and approaching from maybe 300 South. However, anybody who gets a chance to go to Salt Lake City should take a look at the skyline from the connection where 400 South merges into 500 South. That's probably the best angle to view it from, and it looks quite nice from there. In addition, the scenery and backdrop are some of the best in the country for a largish city. I enjoy the city itself, as well. Those pictures don't really do it the justice it deserves, although it's definitely no Denver or Calgary (which are both great cities with amazing skylines). However, I disagree on the "growing" part. Salt Lake City's skyline is not growing and from what I've heard only one new skyscraper is planned for the near future (although who knows how nice it's going to look). For these reasons I'll give it a 6.5/10.

Heres some links to some pictures that might do it a little more justice:

Ontario, CA doesn't have a skyline. I don't remember anything there more than a couple stories tall. I don't know about the others.

Um it reminds me of Richmond... Except Richmond is smaller ( I think), and its skyline is larger. But oh well.

6.5/10
I think Salt Lake's skyline is ok, and it is growing. However alot of the buildings are form the 70's and I think they look ugly. I do like the Wels Fargo Center, One Utah Center, Grand America Hotel, Gateway Tower West, and the new look of the Zions Bank Tower, but I think we could use 500+ foot buildings. I don't think they should get too much high then 600ft because then they would probubly start to become an eye sore in Salt Lake, in other citys however I think they would be ok.

5.5/10

6/10

"4"
Very bland and generic. Just a grouping of boxes with little height and some density. However, I love the city's State Capitol building and if this were based on the city's setting, it would earn a perfect "10". But as skylines go, SLC is disapointing.

not a nice skyline at all. actually i think its very ugly so i give it a 3.5/10.

poor SLC is taking a bashing. I actually really like it, 8/10 :)

I give it a 5.5 for now. I think it should be close to a 7 in a few years though. :D

I think it lokks a little better in real life, but for now it's still very bland. Give at about 10 years though and it'll start to look better.

The City Creek Center is going to add 5 or 6 100+-foot skyscrapers by 2011 or so, including another 400-footer. And that one on Main Street still hasn't been built. Hopefully these 6 or 7 will help the skyline out. One of the skyscrapers is being demolished, as well (but you'll hardly notice that it's missing).

7/10

Not a nice skyline..5/10

It's ok, just wanted to show you that our skyline isn't as small as Spokane or Tacoma.

6/10

4,5/10

Ground was recently broken on the 222 South Main st. Tower (21 stories), and I have heard of at least two possible new tallests for Salt Lake, in the early planing stages.
So maybe Salt Lake's skyline will finaly see some growth after nearly a decade.

8/10

is the tallest part of the salt lake temple complex?

4.5/10 mediocre skyline with not so great buildings from what I can see.

I give it a 3/10 since the skyline is flat and uninteresting. Spokane and Tacoma, WA may not compete, however Bellevue still looks better and has more potential. And if we are going to talk about cities in Washington State, Seattle blows Salt Lake City away.

lol, that's cuz none of you ppl on here seem to have any idea of what's going on in Salt Lake.......
btw, those pictures suck... haha, SLC is way under represented in those pic's

Yes there is currently a lot of construction going on in downtown. The City Creek Center is bringing a new tallest to the city, and there is 222S, a new highrise at the south end of the skyline...... and, there is more where that came from.

so 7

7.5/10, looks like a nice place.

For a city its size Salt Lake City has quite a decent skyline. The setting is also very nice with the mountains in the background. 7.5/10

7/10 I like the skyline and think it looks good for a city as small as Salt Lake City. I like the top of the temple!!!

Decent skyline...6/10

SLC has an decent skyline, and has a very inner-mountain west type of look to it.

Aren't the blocks in downtown SLC rather large/long?

Haa no, this can't be at all Religious.......like who would believe what they do outside the city limits....oh except some guy who thinks he can be the President...........like crazy hey !
