That picture of Houston from the 80's is unreal! I got the post that said the actual CBD was cut off from the picture, but still, that's A LOT of surface parking so close to the downtown. Crazy.
That pic of Philly is embarrassing.
DC is great. Sure their economy is ridiculous but that 12 story height limit sure goes a long way in helping spread the wealth. Philly's top 5 tallest buildings are around 60 stories. I'd take 20 15-story buildings over five really tall buildings if it meant eliminating a dozen or so parking lots.
