The explosive number of towers that have gone up in the same "era" are going to mean a lot of similar styles and designs because that is what is popular at the time. If only 10 of these towers had been built instead of several hundred up and down the coast, I don't think people would be complaining about their architecture or design. The reality is that Miami has some of the best and coolest buildings in the world being built. Certainly in North America.

Reality and your opinion about Miami having "some of the best and coolest buildings in the world being built" have nothing to do with one another.

If you truly think that, then you are not paying attention to architecture around the world. It does not hold true for only North America either.

Suggested correction: The reality is that Miami has some of the best and coolest buildings in Florida being built.

I would agree with that.
