Amarillo Texas can be seen for a very long way thanks to the flat land to the south and the increasing elevation to the north, and the 374' FirstBank Southwest Tower.

Here's a view from about 20 miles as shot by me from a moving vehicle.

Probably not much. I’ve seen the Amarillo skyline from almost double that distance.

Moving van companies reporting, and various outlets estimating N.Y.C losing hundreds of thousands of populations since 2020, is very doubtful. The far-off views of a transformed Brooklyn and Jersey City are fantastic.

Chicago from Hyde Park, roughly 7 miles south of the loop.

The big construction site in the foreground is the Obama Presidential Library.

Well, I feel like being nice today so these are courteous of Paradox24 on UrbanOhio. He flew a drone over Leamington, Ontario last month and got these beauties (courtesy of UrbanOhio.com). We got three skylines (and Cedar Point) from one spot. I apologize in advance, I thought SSP would've right-sized the images but you'll need the full resolution to see them anyway, I suppose.

Toledo, from Leamington, ON




Detroit, from Leamington, ON








Cleveland, from Leamington, ON




Cleveland and BOTH of Lakewood, OH's skylines from Leamington, ON




More aerials from Put-in-Bay, OH and Leamington, ON below:

All major NYC skyline nodes including Newark NJ:

Spoiler due to size. A fun one to stare at and explore.
