America's Skyscrapers of the Future

In brazil has a project called triumph tower or Senna tower, in the city of Balneário Camboriú. The building has 544 m taler. Is the talest residencial building in the world.

[@mushroomsteve]

I totally noticed that! I love the harmony with nature of many of these buildings. It is a refreshing change from the old, sterile modern buildings from before that tried to be separate from nature. This new style is a new addition to the traditional architecture with ornate buildings with gargoyles on the sides, and the art deco style.

No surprise to any Torontonian that the construction schedule is lagging behind. Nothing gets built in Toronto on time, or on budget. The Eglington Crosstown Subway began construction in 2011 with a scheduled completion and operation by 2020. It's now 2024 and the builder, Metrolinx, will not provide an updated expected completion date. The project was originally budgeted at $11 billion dollars, but has currently reached $12.81 Billion dollars and it is now estimated to add $1 Billion dollars more, before completion.

The Chrystler Building, perhaps could be an analogy in this sense. Neither building needs what makes them beautiful, but to make something beautiful that is part of the building's functionality is what makes a modern building modern way after we are all dust.

[@ahmedzakikhan7639]

I don't think earth quake is the main reason. Its ultimately down to pricing power of land. Downtown LA is highly neglected - most rich live in the suburbs and like a typical sun belt city - LA is built for sprawl and cars - while cities New York Chicago and Toronto are downtown centric - where central business districts are thriving with businesses and residential living. Tell me who wants to live or visit downtown LA ? No one - hence no premium to pricing. LA downtown probably don't have 1/5 population of downtown Chicago.

US should build the world's tallest building, its crazy that American developers built it for Dubai but its not happening in the US

[@ahmedzakikhan7639]

It's because American goverment do not brand their cities - unlike Asian cities that spend and brand their cities. Federal goverment don't support New York City or Chicago - they survive on their own tax system- while the Royal Family of UAE literally bailed out Dubai when it was almost bankrupt. Same didn😮't happen for Detroit and won't happen for Chicago or NYC. Second reason is CRIME. American downtowns are dangerous unlike Dubai - so apart from NYC Chicago and a handful of cities, most big cities in US are sprawling with city centers neglected. Which is why people like to buy their own cars and live far from the city.
