Buildings look very boring- must be white or red/brown colour....needs something different there, some more height and density and a better-defined core.

I have to see more photos to make my mind, i think seeing these 3 pictures that the city doesn't look bad, nice buildings, enough green, pretty clean.

I think Barranquilla's number of high buildings is quite decent. Anyaway, this is a city in the Caribbean, a city to relax.

For some reason, I can't see the pictures posted at the beginning of the thread. I will assume that these are different ones. Hopefully they are..... this is Barranquilla, the city where Shakira was born:

7/10- although there aren't very many talls, this city has nice density, beaches, and a good mass transit system.
