Bigger is not always better, and newer buildings (design, facades, etc.) are often less attractive than their older counterparts.
I submit that the greatest ever skyline, from any era, was that of lower Manhattan, 1930-1958.

My heart literally aches when I see the way the downtown skyline once looked. There could not be a more perfect skyline, anywhere, anytime, not now, not ever.
