In addition to the “Best Modern European Skylines” on the SSC, I would like to open a separate thread here,
which show the development of European skylines to the interested Americans/Canadians out there.
European skylines can be divided into 4 groups. The current number of completed and topped out skyscrapers 150 m/492 ft is shown in brackets ().
Manchester will move up to Tier 2 in the next few years. It is the fastest growing city in its group and the second fastest in UK.
