While I like it, I think it really needs itself a spire, or two, or a defined crown of some sort. Not sure if I've rated it yet but I'll do it again.. 8.5/10 w/one bayfront will be a 9.

Holy shit!

So many cranes in the skyline!

8/10, nice and large skyline. Much better than those other U.S. skylines that has everything centered into a small packed core.

0/10

Miami is a cesspool.

I don´t understand why people are voting less then 3. I think miami is the most Beautiful city in the world. I gave a 9.5 , didn´t give a 10 because i think there´s too many buildings, i moved from Miami in 1998 so i am not used to see soo many skycrapers all togheter in the Brickell and Downtown area. Last time i was in miami was in 2004 and i saw the demolition of the Dupont Plaza hotel, almost cry...

^^ theres no reason why it should get anything below a 5, miami is a city thats always changing, everywhere u go everywhere u look theres always construction going on, and new projects ect...

10/10---------outstanding skyline and getting better by the day & best skyline in the south

Damn all that emerald water, then the water in the back with the sunlight making it glow is just breath taking.

yeah...but all the waterfront lands are taken up with new super expensive condos..Miami has no waterfront parks for it's people...it's all about MONEY, and CORRUPTIONS...nice neighbourhood has great landscape and go bit out of the city border, it's deplorable. All these condos comin up at once...who gonna buy them? They are all uber expensive condos, even if the market crashes...they are still far from afordable. Miami infrastructure sucks and hasn't expanded and improved (recently they have a little) and public transportation...sucks!!! in pictures..Miami is perfect and damn attractive but when you look below and lift up the skirt...it's damn ugly. What makes a city attractive is balance and Miami doesn't have that! Talkin bout skyline, yes Miami skyline is quite awesome but in reality...it's not as sweet as you might think, believe me, I live here! :ohno:

rating Miami skyline I'd give it a 7.5...just because of Brickell and Miami Beach..

So Bayfront Park, Museum/Bicentenial Park, Pace park and all of the morningside coastal parks arent there?!!?
This isnt the place to talk about city issues it about the skyline, that was really unnecassary.

Decent...

7/10

Average: 6/10, possible 7-7.5/10 in the near future.

Getting better by the day. 8/10

I can't wait to see the skyline when all the towers are built. I gave it a 10 becuase the skyline may not be very tall, but it is very wide. You've got miles of skyline going on from Brickell to Midtown. Its a colorful and bright skyline at night. You've got a bay, a river, briges, palm trees and a beach minutes away. I'd say thats a perfect ten!

I don't know what to say about miami at this time. Until all of these 100's of new towers are done, I don't know what to rate it.

:banana: Nice but not wonderful, 7.5/10

According to Wikipedia Miami has the THIRD best skyline in the USA after only New York and Chicago. Of course it's all subjective. I don't agree with everything I read in Wikipedia, either. But I must say that Miami is indeed someplace special. In my view the crystalline Aquamarine waters of Biscayne Bay, framed by gently swaying coconut palms with their feathery fronds, the Bay punctuated by tiny tropical islands is so much more beautiful than the murky leaden waters of Hong Kong's Harbor, New York's Harbor or even Chicago's Lakefront.

To those who rated Miami's skyline anything less than say a "6" ... I say: Have you ever been to Miami? Have you seen the skyline from, say, the fifteenth floor of a condo in Normandy Isles - as I have - and was astonished by the vibrant colors of turquoise skies, puffy coral pink and peach clouds, the aforementioned aquamarine waters and the emerald green trees ... focusing on the modern glassy towers reflecting in the Bay to perfection?

I live in Philadelphia. I love my city. I would not trade it for any other city. I must give credit where it is due ... and I delight in Miami - a sparkling glamorous town that makes it a world famous city and resort; clean, elegant, and so lively!:cucumber: :pepper: :banana2:

8.5...if Miami continues at the rate it's going, we're looking at 'badass' in the near future.

That is a great view of Miami. Actually both pictures are very impressive. They show how much Miami has changed as far as overall construction. The city impresses the more I see it. Too bad I voted when the poll first came out.

good 8.5/10

I've visited Miami nearly 6 years ago and stayed a whole week at the President Hotel near the Ocean Drive. It's just wonderful (if u ignore the cockroaches and gheckos up there). Floridian sun, girls, beach, lifestyle. Gotta love it :)

But I also had the impression that the statistics state - Miami is full of criminal energy. There had been an assault of a tiny shop right in front of where I've eaten my breakfast. And another day, some homeless apparently wanted to let burst a self tinkered bomb right next to the beach esplanade... But, nevertheless, at the end of the day I was freakin happy to spent my vacation up there.

Oh, before I forget about the skyline: My impression was, that the highrises/scrapers look quite atypical for an US-city - not to mention the word "cheap". But, somehow, it seems to work, because u find that style spread all over the city. And it has some Art Decó charme in the Miami Beach area. I used to love the way Miami looks and feels.
At least I have to give an 8/10 to the sunshine city :dance2:

Is that you Will Smith? LOL!

Lots of variety in buildings and good height. Think it is more impressive in person than in photos.

It is now a Great Skyline, Yes, maybe #1 in Design(buildings), But Miami is not a city of Height...YET.

#1 of design? I honestly do not know who I would give that to ( in my own opinion) but Miami? I would give Miami a 7.5 now moving up to an 8. I am totally impressed with the amount of buildings going up and at the rate they are going up. I think the skyline is looking denser and denser and it would be wonderful for the city to get those new supertalls that are approved and proposed. My question for design, however, take it any way you want but overall it's kind of boxy and bland.

Not a bad looking skyline by any means and on it's way to looking a whole lot better but it's time to step outside the box and maybe put some crowns and spires out there.

You must ov never walked in DownTown Miami...I've walkd the whole city of New York and chicago 4 days admiring their buildings but 2 me they ALL look the same. yea every city has that 1 outstanding building but those are too plain and boring for me. I Love the art deco, palm trees, Bay n Beaches that are 2 offer down here. All we need is the Friendly people the North raised, and Miami will be IT.

^i think your overbiased for a discussion on best design, although i agree that our skyline is very above avrage im not ready to say its #1....anyways i've very proud of the amount of change that our skyline has experienced....i recently looked at the first post, a picture posted by rainier meadows flash forward and that same picture is severely outdated with about 30 new towers being built there after.

Big, dense, but lacks personality. 7/10

Actually been there quite a bit. I have family all over South Florida. I wasn't trying to bad mouth the skyline. Not at all and infact I thought my answer was pretty fair to say the least.
I really don't know of Art Deco outside of South Beach but the City of South Beach really took that style and ran with it. The fact that you think every building in ny and chicago looks the same leads me to believe you are a complete liar and have A. Never been to either... or B. Forgot to actually look up.

I wouldn't go knocking them over a fair and generally good statement someone mentioned that may have rubbed you the wrong way. Both of those places have some of ( if not all) the best stock of skyscrapers from each era. #1 is an opinion and subjective and I completely respect that but my dude, it is quite boxy and glass is good, but work with a design other than the rectangle, cylandrical table roof. That was only an observation I made that had been said without any bad intentions. Just think it would do better with a signature tower, a break from the table roof box and some more buildings that significantly break the 700' mark.
Toss in 3 900', 6-7 800', 2-3 1000' to match the forming skyline now and I'm sold on it.
Still say 7.5 on its way up.

9!

I think what southFLBoy is trying to say is that NY, Chicago, looks a bit on the gray, brown, and black side and Miami looks new white green and blue..

but designs? Art Deco? we must respect NY, and Chicago...After all they are the birth homes to the skyscrapers
and the Capital towers http://www.condhotel.com/images/Capital-at-Brickell-Miami.jpg
which just started construction is inspired by the all famous and great Empire State building and Chrysler building. :master::bow:

Well said visonMIA!! I like the latest ones under constructions but the ones that are completed, condos I meant are quite a dissapointment. Miami Beach on the other hand has better designs..just my 2 cents. Capital Towers tho are great lookin duo!

It has its fair share of height and density, but there's little to no architectural distinction among its skyscrapers.

8/10.

Very impressive. But remember, this thread is about Miami, NOT Miami Beach. Keep in mind that many forumers don't know they're two separate cities...

There are better pics than that and it will eventually get bettter once all the constructions are completed. 9/10 now. 9.5/10 in 5 - 10 years.

Beautiful but incredibly small. Cant wait until all the projects are complete should be great. 7

^^buddy is the third largest skyline in the country, how is that small?

^^ I disagree, by area, I think Honolulu has a much much bigger skyline. Anyways, I rate Miami skyline a 9/10.

http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=442048 and that photo was taken around 2005, there's over 20 new buildings added to the skyline since and much more in construction right now. Honolulu is a city with around 380,000 population.

it's not about disagreement its a fact...
anyway great skyline views from this vid

well, what can I say 9/10 - it's very wide and beautiful skyline besides Dexter my favorite "mass murderer" comes from Miami;)

im not asking u for ur opinon, its just simply a fact...Good job repeating VisionMia post:bash: Anyways, the pictures tell all. . .

I can say I pretty much grew up in Miami and now live in Honolulu.........while miami has height, Honolulu has density.

yeah If you lived in Miami 3 years ago I would agree...Miami has quadrupled in the last 3 years....
look at the Miami pics at the beginning of this thread..That was Miami then 3 years ago and look at the pics of today.. you'll see what I'm talkin about..

I'm sorry but Honolulu doesn't even have ONE building over 500 ft...Honolulu is covered in green.. those white houses don't coun't as density...According to Emporis Honolulu has 519 buildings...Miami has 544..that is not including Miami beach which is right down the street of I395.. if so add another 202...Remember FL is flat..so tall buildings in the back will appear shorter. Honolulu elevates it's lil' buildings and houses in the back as to make it appear dense like beautiful San Fran....

Please don't insult my intelegence Honolulu is beautiful but it's skyline cannot be compared.. I almost fell off my chair when I read that...Honolulu skyline can compete more with Mexico city..small buildings that are very spread out..

Honolulu is gorgeous..but this skyline cannot be compared to Miami..they are apples to oranges..

i agree its an insult to miamians comparing honolulu's skyline with miami's

I think everybody here has to stop the city vs city s*it. :bash:

Miami's skyline actually looks most impressive @ night, when you're driving down I-95 past Downtown, or across one of the causeways, watching those lights reflect in the water.

^^ The metropolitan area has 5 million. :)

Ok, and the most people in the metropolitan area are working in downtown ? That's the only reason I can imagine ;)

Miami really has never been a huge city. The metro is made up of three seperate metros that merged into one of 5 million. In fact prior to its mega-boom this decade, Miami's skyline was rather small. It is sooooo much more impressive than it used to be.

Still I find coastal skylines (those dominated by residential) slightly less impressive than some others. 8.5/10

^^well if u include all of the county in miami which most people do then it is a huge city because of the fact that theres almost 3 millions of people living in it

^^ The lastest estimate is 2.4 million but what about all of the other cities in the county?

^^what about them? they dont do absolutely anything is all controlled by miami, well except hialeah but thats about it. miami isnt really like LA or Chicago that if you dont live in those cities then you just say you live near it or the city u live on, in miami is really diff everyone in miami-dade is consider as to livin in miami.

Miami is awesome, i just love it!!!

I'm not trying to get into a debate about it. My whole point was to illustrate how incredible Miami's boom has been. Reguardless of the population, the skyline wasn't that big prior to the last 10 years.

Best view is from above to get the whole spread:

skyline sacle isn't that big, but buildings are all well designed with high quality, 8.5/10

Beautiful city, I can't wait to get there.

Idk why but in real life it's 100 times better, in pictures it looks so so. And it looks too depressing in pictures, which is the complete OPPOSITE in real life.

and more constr. going on behind these buildings.

I can't believe people are still giving Miami a "3". Oh well, to each is own.

Indeed ^^ I so really love this city. Maybe around 50 highrise towers rising up. Miami is Booming :D

Like I said: Miami is booming :):cheers:

Miami's skyline is famous, i see it all the time in Movies, and TV. Watch Dexter all the time and there are some good skyline flyovers in between scenes.

I give this one a 10/10 :).

Which idiot would give it less than 3.I think it deserves an 8.5 but i am really looking forward to Miami's future.

^^^^ Apparently quite a few because in the last couple of days I believe two people have and seeing the number hitting 87, well, there seems to be a lack of love for Miami.

Maybe they're jealous on the beautiful skyline of Miami ;). But there are enough people who like the skyline of Miami so. See also the today opened projects and construction thread for Miami. Click on Miami in my signature :)

well remember this the Miami thread was opened five years ago and five years ago Miami was not the Miami of today so a majority of those votes come from back then when Miami really didn't have much of a skyline.. I will tell you this and it's a fact. Since I joined SSC back in Oct. of 2006 the number of votes that were 3 or less was at 79 and now it's at 87. It was 86 since last year so a lil hater out there who voted 3 or less was the first in 2008.

I know I'm the one who puts the pictures here for a long time... what can I say I love this city and love to share it's fresh new look thats being built on paradise. and paradise I mean get on one of these towers to around the 30th floor on any sunny day at around 10am.. you'll see a glaring blue ocean that hits your face with the warmth of the sun. look at neighboring towers and see them glow from the oceans reflections. the cruise ships coming in at the ports to your left. the warm wind of the Atlantic. look down and see beautiful people at the cafe's below an people in their yachts cruising by and the green tropics of the earth. it's an amazing view.

Is anything going to happen to that little gas station? It kinda ruins the whole sidewalk they got going on with the "biscayne wall". Any plans for a tower there?

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2008/2475035082_4416d3d992_b.jpg

BP gas station will remain. however behind these towers are scheduled to come Miami's biggest development project yet!
Park West!
http://media.miamiherald.com/smedia/2007/10/31/17/710-falcone01.standalone.prod_affiliate.56.jpg

Man, they really need to get rid of that BP. They really want to keep it there? Weak. The proposals look good though.

its very espectacular!!!! ohh i love miami!!!! spring break!

WOW!

the guy who owns the BP gas station has owned the property for years. they've offered him millions. he won't sell..

Great skyline.:)

I LOVE IT

I gave the Miami skyline an 8.5 because I know we are nowhere near finished with it. It is not complete! We have towers under construction now that have not even gone vertical yet. It has changed radically in just three years and it will change even more in the next three years. Check back at the end of 2010 to review a decade of development and new skyscraper construction, but we still won't be finished.

I used to live in Miami when I was a kid, from 1977 to 1981. I don't remember it since I was 1-4. I showed my dad some of the current pics and he had no idea what city it was. When I told him it was Miami, he couldn't believe it. If anyone has a pic from the late 70's to early 80's to contrast, that would be cool.

That one had me cracking up! :lol: But it's true! If you haven't been here in this century, the city is totally unrecognizable. Most of the change has occurred in the last three years and will continue on into the next decade. It's as if the skyline discovered warp technology! :)

I used to live in Miami when I was a kid, from 1977 to 1981. I don't remember it since I was 1-4. I showed my dad some of the current pics and he had no idea what city it was. When I told him it was Miami, he couldn't believe it. If anyone has a pic from the late 70's to early 80's to contrast, that would be cool.

here is a pic of Miami in the early 80s with South East Bank (now Wachovia) tower under construction.

^^ holy crap. :eek:

Greatful!!!

9.5/10

According to Wikipedia Miami has the THIRD best skyline in the USA after only New York and Chicago. Of course it's all subjective. I don't agree with everything I read in Wikipedia, either.

It doesn't say third best. This is exactly what Wikipedia says:

Wikipedia:
"Overall, Miami's skyline is ranked first in the Southeast and third in the United States, after New York City and Chicago. By 2010, Miami is expected to have one of largest skylines in the world. Of the 10 tallest buildings in the city, 2 were constructed in 2007, 6 in 2008, 2 in the 1980's and 1 in 2003. In addition, only 5 of the city's 25 tallest buildings were completed before the year 2000."

This is based on the number of tall buildings which have made it to construction thus far, so it's not subjective. It's actually a statistical fact.

10/10 Miami's skyline is world famous. You see it constantly in movies, TV and the media and it continues to get taller and bigger. I don't understand how anyone could give Miami less than 3!

Beautiful Miami!

Miami is everything but beautiful, exciting, or amusing.

I'm not too keen on the even mix of commercial residential towers... looks weird. But a good skyline none the less.

8/10 :)

I gave it a 9. It resembles a lot of Latin American cities in that there are lots of buildings, but not enough distinctive ones.

Miami Skyline is okay. But still Asian Skylines are still the best in the world.

Miami: 3/10

nice skyline:) 8/10

I gave it a 9. It resembles a lot of Latin American cities in that there are lots of buildings, but not enough distinctive ones.

i think youre right, it does have that latin american feel to it mixed in with the american style, the only disticntive buildings is the Wachovia financial center and Bank of America tower, thou them 2 are being overpassed by some new construction

Hey you got a link to this photo to the photopage? Its great

There should really be a new Miami thread. They have built WAAAYYY too many new buildings in the last few years from the start of this thread to be relevant. The votes tilt too low, IMO because of this.

Best skyline of florida!

Miami has an awesome skyline....though I do believe it is lacking a signature landmark, maybe a supertall office building that stands out (not the typical white concrete and glass w / balcony that you see so much out there)..

GREAT SKYLINE....just missing a supertall to crown it.
