Have always been into buildings and city skylines from day and seems that American cities got loads of skyscrapers, was just wondering if anybody from there (or anywhere) are interested in their own architecture/skylines.

Post pictures of your town/city's skyline or any architecture that you're into. Do you have a favourite building in your city?

Here's mine

Also, has anyone ever studied architecture and does anybody know of any black architects in America, besides Wesley Snipes in Jungle Fever, or in Africa & the Caribbean?

Plus, a salute to Chicago for being the birth place of the skyscraper/eventually influencing what i hope will be a career for me and for still having an impressive skyline

Londons skyline :hhh: the shard, the walkie talkie and the cheese grater at abominations in architecture

Shard - giant shank on the skyline, not bad tho
Walkie Talkie - Still cannot understand how it was allowed to be built
Cheesegrater - I prefer this to the other 2

I blame the Gherkin for all 3 of them towers

What London buildings do you like?

London has a dope skyline for sure though....I love that city too much.

The skyline is decent but there kinda ruining it by building huge buildings too close together. Literally tryna make London like New York and put highrises up everywhere

This gonna be the City of London in a few years

True say. I rate St. Paul's and the Canary Wharf cluster of straight lined, closely packed glass n steel joints.
