People compare Austin, a toddler, to grown adults like NYC and Chicago. Did I tell you I'm ecstatic about getting a 770'!
Well I'm not saying we immediately need exactly what NYC and Chicago have. But I was pointing out that unique buildings in different architectural styles are what makes those the best skylines in the world IMO. Austin could very well have the same thing, on a far lower scale, and accomplish our version of that. But instead, it's designs like this, that look like they bought the blueprints in a 12-pack at Costco.
