One of my favorite skylines. I have always loved Phillies skyline. It is its own. It doesn't try to be anything else or any other cities skyline, but has its own Philly character to it. There are many much bigger ones (both Houston and Dallas in Texas, not to mention many others I think are a good bit bigger) but Phillies skyline has a great personality that fits it well.

I love Philly too. Its skyline works very well because it is located within a fairly dense city ... unlike Houston and Dallas that have more and taller buildings but the density, even within the CBD, is quite poor. Philly's skyline just seems like a very organic extension to the fabric of the cityscape at large.

Philadelphia's skyline is very classy like Minneapolis. You can pinpoint the beautiful buildings in the skyline. Are there any under construction skyscrapers that will somewhat significantly change the skyline next year or the coming years?

American Commerce Center, a 1500 ft. supertall has been approved and is financed. It just needs an anchor tenant so construction can begin. :)

Dallas's buildings are about the same size as philly's, maybe a few more skyscrapers, It's Houston that has taller ones/more.
