I know we always want taller taller taller, but for a city our size we are really outpunching our weight class.
6XG combined with three 700 footish towers (Austonian, Indy, Republic) and the impressive stuff proposed for the Rainey St area - even if only some of it gets built - will definitely propel Austin's skyline above every other U.S. city with similar population. Much like our traffic nightmare is on par with metros of 5 million.
