I went to Seattle for the first time in decades last year. The view of the skyline when approaching downtown on I-5 coming from the airport is VERY impressive. Also, Philadelphia is looking pretty impressive as well!

Thanks! Yes, Philly is looking good. Philly has always had a nice collection of buildings in the 100 footer, 200 footer, 300 footer and 400 footer ranges, and now has one 1,000 footer, two 900 footers, one 800 footer, and three 700 footers, but Philadelphia is severely lacking in the 500 footer and 600 footer range for a city it's size. Part of this is due to the Gentleman's Agreement that you couldn't build taller than City Hall until the late 80s, but still, it's nice to see some 600 footers and 500 footers under construction and proposed in Philly as of late.
