Hi there. Has anyone ever been to Frankfurt. It is the financial capital of Europe (in my opinion) being home to not only the European Central Bank but also the tallest Skyscraper in Europe, the Commerzbank Tower.
(height with spire: 300m / 984ft)

Nice pics.  I've heard people refer to Frankfurt being one of the most 'American' looking cities with it's skyline.

When I first saw Frankfurt I was a bit surprised. Most pictures I've of European cities had next to no skyscrapers. I remember when I was in Budapest marveling at how such a dense, populated city had such a flat skyline. The only highrises there were those highrise residentials.

Frankfurt looks nice. The spire in the second picture in the back reminds me of BOA Atlanta.

I love Frankfurt--I lived there and in the surrounding area for a few years in the early 90's....it's exciting to see it continue to grow.  A great city, and outstanding skyline.  MAN I wanna go back!

Frankfurt is also the most EXPENSIVE City in Germany along with München and Düsseldorf.

all the fiancial Power is in Frankfurt, the so called " Europäische Zentral Bank"

Be careful, because Frankfurt has also one of the highest crimerates in Germany!
