400 is way taller so yea, Maybe Miami is out.
This thread makes me kind of depressed, at least the US has New York (and maybe Chicago if it builds tall again).

The US still pumps out an obscene amount of 100-200m towers, if we take to account all of its cities. But yeah, NY is on another galaxy in the height category (have you seen Empire Station, and what can manifest from that... 9 towers, with a potential of 18-20 million sq-ft.... big stuff overall), but what has been going on in Miami or Seattle and even in some Texan cities is promising.
I think we'll get back into the skyscraper/high rise motion once this global rubbish clears up, but compared to let's say 2010... the last decade has seen a lot of our cities have big overhauls of their skylines or skyscraper nodes. In general, the U.S. is still doing well in terms of the skyscraper game. I mean just close one's eyes and ignore China if we don't want our ego hurt... but overall, we are doing ok lol.
