According to Emporis.com, New York City in fact has at least 5,792 high rises. That number only includes buildings that are inside of New York's city limits. This number is referring to buildings that are 115 feet tall or taller, or that have at least 12 floors. By the same classification, Austin has about 170 high rises.
New York doesn't even have the highest number of high rises of any city. There are cities in South America and Asia with more high rises by as many as several more thousand buildings.
