Thats amazing

Dude that is insane! Imagine all of those buildings together.

Yea, that's just insane!

Houston's skyline has always been extremely impressive to me, and it's my 3rd favorite in the country, behind only Chicago and NYC. I have family in The Woodlands, and I stayed downtown in the Hilton Americas last summer, and I'm looking forward to getting back soon.

That IS amazing.

Wow.

Thanks for posting Greens. So true, Houston is # 3 IMO in the U.S. Skylines. Consolidate all those skylines and Houston's Skyline becomes a legendary world class for sure. It probably qualifies now. The Energy Corridor along the Beltway/Westhiemer is another nice set of high-rises. And I was suprised to see a skyline near the Intercontinental Airport. The 32-story Anadarko Tower in The Woodlands is also an impressive high-rise 30+ miles from Downtown Houston.

Also, there is a new 500 footer going up in the Memorial City Mall area.

IMO, Houston has an underrated skyline for a city its size. Excellent shots. My favorite shot is I-45 coming into downtown.

[richyb83]

I'd definitely rank Houston as one of the Top 5 Skylines in the U.S. And if you added Uptown and the othe smaller skylines around the city you would have a southern style Manhattan.

Yeah Houston's skyline is really impressive. I go down there to visit my relatives and they live near Barker-Cypress Rd. and it's impressive how I can see the skyline from Sam Houston Tollway. It amazes everytime.

Cool pics SBC and Greens.

[brijonmang]

great pics greens! I don't really have any pics of my own to contribute right now because I'm going to school in Lubbock, but keep up the good compilations. All the new things going on in Houston make me a little homesick.
