I can see one tower. I'll give the city skyline a 3/10. Sorry, probably it's a nice city, but I can't see the high-rise buildings.

Couldn't find any decent pics on the interweb. I've seen worse on here though.

Swindom is a place located in England. Never heard of it till now, making it one of the lowest ranking cities in the world. Pretty much, much reviewers are giving this city either a 4 ut of 10. I don't know what to think, seriously. I see a European city that looks ok, not amazing, or near great, but it's a bit above average to me. Would I live there? Yes I would, but if I was born there, I would want to leave the city anytime. I guess this city is more of a residential than city itself, look at the amount of houses, trust me, this is a wonderful place to live I guess. 6/10.

There are shanty towns with classier buildings than some of our Cities, I get embarrassed on these international boards..

as someone who lives in Swindon, it is nice. However to have it on a skyscraper based website is ridiculous. There is only one building of any significant height and that is pug-ugly (which by the way is 83m not 75 :) )

There is quite a lot of redevelopment though (most of which is also ugly) which will make the place cleaner and slightly taller with several buildings being an incredible 5-6 floors.

Apart from that its fine

Swindon is surround by some of the most historic and magical countryside in England. It has an amazing railway museum and some beautiful churches. It is a railway town, with a great Victorian history. I know that there are plans for the entire centre of the town to be demolished and redesigned. It is a busy place as it is half way between London and Bristol on the M4 - one of the busiest motoways in the UK.
