If we are talking about sheer volume of highrises Toronto has had Chicago beat for some time. Toronto currently has over 2300 highrises (12 floors or higher) while Chicago has just under 1300. But as many have said Toronto is a very different city than Chicago and cities should not be measured by number of skyscrapers. Will Toronto ever have as many 50 story buildings as Chicago? Its gonna be a while. Will Chicago ever be home to more highrises than Toronto? Not in this lifetime. The two cities both have a couple things I love. A Great Lake and waves of skyscrapers that stretch for miles.
