Some of them look kinda tall, although the tallest is only about 150 meter? I can still remember the plane crashing in it

. But most of the towers (downtown I think) look crappy, those in the bussiness districts (at least, thats what I think they are...) look nice. A 7.

@Super_sniper

the tallest skyscraper of Milan is the "Pirelli", about 130m
One year ago, a private airplane crashed into-it

I wonder who has given 10 to Milan' skyline? Big? I give 6.5, hoping it will improve in the nx few years!

mmmm... i give a 7.
Milan needs modern and more tall building!

The lack of the skyscrapers and/or communist-style resident blocks makes it look

Milan skyline is not that nice. But the city itself is very pretty. I've been there once. and i love the sights very much.

You are right - you have to see the city itself. I don't say that the city sucks, it's just the skyline.

This building actually looks kinda cute to me

Reminds me something my grandparents live in right now.

and this one is also sort of communist-like

7,5 for the skyline (Alpi!!! Mountains!!!)
Milan will be better!
Milan jump into the future!
Ciao

Milan is a time capsule for skyscrapers.....the city that stood still since the 1970's.

But there is hope....

But I think the cities to watch in Italy are Genova and Torino at the moment.

Not Bad, 4

Considering the wealth, style and prominence of this city, the skyline is an absolute digrace!

Città bella, grattacieli terribili!
