Yes for sure. For me the big difference with the other cities isn't down to the skyscrapers and can't really be overcome with skyscrapers. Skyscrapers are sort of like the tip of the urban form iceberg with some large urban cities like Paris not even having many. The real difference is the expanses of stuff like this even in places where nothing terribly tall is anywhere in sight.
