I think Houston has been somewhat of a pioneer here in the US of residential highrise living in the sunbelt, but it didnt seem to capture the boom quite as much as Atlanta and of course Miami. Same can be said of LA....
And you're right imagine Houston or LA adding 10-12 600 ft condo towers, it would alter the landscape drastically.

Not a condo tower, but it will still rise to an impressive 630 ft. in the heart of downtown Houston drastically changing the skyline towards the north end where it needs it the most. Chase Tower was getting kinda lonely.
