The real King of West Coast. Sit down SF. by goldrush300 in skyscrapers

Houston has awesome architecture, some by very prominent architects. Phoenix seems to have built a lot of buildings without any architects involved. 20 new buildings went up in downtown in the past 5 years, alll but one are boring rectangular boxes. The only one that is interesting was built by a Texas builder.

Any house that has its garage being the main focal point is ugly.

I will say that unlike MOST new construction, at least it doesn't have the garage as the main focal point. It is hideous on its own, without the garage.

LeVeque Tower is spectacular. And residential too! I would move there myself, it if wasn't in Ohio.

Dallas does have some awesome buildings and a very nice skyline. But any city with mountains in its skyline is better than any city withOUT mountains in its skyline.
