Are East Coast cities Skylines out dated and boring?

Pittsburgh is underrated.

from a distance yea.....when you're in it, seems mad congested....but Pittsburgh got a dope vibe to it that I like...same for Seattle

Architecture thread @BrothaZay

I think dubai in regards to skylines and definitely modernization is up there to.

Charlotte creepin' on a come up..

Never seen a city rapidly building up shyt like they are except ATL in the late 80s, early 90s.

I've been to a lot of cities, but man Seattle is killing the game. Water, city, space needle, and Mt.Ranier all in one shot. Top 3 city , look wise I've ever been too.

Don't sleep on San Francisco too. The view of the city from the other side of the Golden Gate bridge or doing s boat tour to Alcatraz will leave you
The downward sloping topography of the land makes it look incredible.

They're unique which sticks out to me.

Yeah u would think LA would have a better skyline than they currently do even San Diego's looks better currently

LA is so spread out having tall buildings packed into 1 square mile is uneasissary.

I still don't thing people realize how rapidly NYC skyline is evolving. The west side is being developed aggressively. Super tall buildings being erected on 59th st. Gas stations being demolished and turned into massive towers.

Ny is not only by far the most desnly built city in the nation but also the one with by far the most shyt being constructed.

Thanks, I was waiting for someone to say Toronto.

those buildings are extremely tall. They just look small when compared to the CN Tower - the largest freestanding structure in the western hemisphere. lol

My GOAT City even though the bytches are stoosh here.

I'm from a classic city so I'll stick with the classics.

You can't explain this to people who's cities just got skylines and proper infrastructure.

Chicago invented the skyscraper so you know theirs is on point.

So beautiful coming into the city at night.

Theres literally like one stretch for 3/4 a mile on Lakeshore that you can drive down in Chicago and get a decent view and thats coming around going north towards Grant Park from Soldier Field. Basically, unless you live in a high rise on the near north facing south, near west facing east or around Roosevelt your view is average as hell. The way its designed, Chicago's skyline as a resident is nothing like all the shots from helicopters over the Lake. Other cities like NY have skylines that also translate to pedestrians and drivers aesthetically.

La got snow capped mountains

Chicago skyline is perfect

I do think cities that are experiencing rapid growth for the first time in the new millennium are trending away from towers ...

I'll always value a tower lined skyline featuring complimentary architectural designs .

Pittsburgh ?

 

[MikeyC]

The pictures look good cause of the nature, the Mount Fuji, the sea... the buildings are just as generic as the East Coast/Southern ones imo.

Exactly.
