North America highrise construction map

Miami is the center of six million people. That will tend to mean a lot. The municipal population is irrelevant.

That said, it's also impressive construction for the center of six million people.

It's also very geographically constrained. The only place to go is up to accommodate growth.

Hi it's me the original creator lol, I knew there were lots of inaccuracies with my initial post, and I posted a more accurate (but not error-free, as some commentors have pointed out even more information lol) version here: https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeaut...ghrises_under/

And the size of the bubble is metro population. I thought it would be interesting to see how high-rise construction correlated with the size of the area.

Wow, this did not come up at all when I was doing research for the graphic. Good to see that Nola has something under construction.

Came here to say this too. They are missing the fact that there are several u/c in Grand Rapids.

Studio Park Tower
Corewell Admin. Building
Corewell Ambulatory Patient Tower

All greater than 10 stories. Looks like this map was just a fun pet project for someone and good for them. No offense taken. Just not super accurate.
