Already coming from I-10 west right before the 60 merge where you can see the lookout of the valley, the Tempe skyline oddly reminded me of mini Vegas skyline from the same approach you get driving into Vegas with the valley and then a wall of skyscrapers.
I think it will keep going as long as the economy holds, slow down on the next recession and then gain momentum again. Tempe is landlocked and really nowhere it can build except up. The only problem is, Tempe won't get any towers over the height of W6 for a long time if ever. But I am perfectly fine with that as long as Tempe keeps adding another dozen or so towers around 250'.
