Hey, forget just mentioning Dallas as having a cool skyline in Texas. A couple years ago the newspaper USA TODAY named it as being the most beautiful skyline in the entire WORLD. Not just in Texas. Not just in the USA. But rather our skyline was voted the best skyline in the entire WORLD. So, there you are. THE FACTS!

Great video! I was just in downtown Dallas about 3 months ago and it was a cool experience. But my favorite downtown has and always will be in Miami, Its booming right now, its a exciting time to see a skyline of such a young international city expand and grow into one of the fastest growing downtown's in the U.S. today.

I am from Dallas i moved from 1994 i saw a question about 1980s Dallas booming with tall buildings yes oil money and office speculation and lets not forget 1000s of apartments where built. The savings and loan crisis and over building got Big d there will never be a 1000ft building built in downtown Dallas why love field. As far as i know Fort worth can have over 1000ft buildings and it should build one time cow town built something magnificent but don't be surprised if Frisco or Plano build one before. Houston and Dallas got some beautiful buildings but i have to warn those too cities Austin probably get tallest building in texas and San Antonio needs to start building too every city needs iconic building i think it gives folks hope.

First I want to say that this is a great video and I enjoyed it, however to say that there are no new towers proposed or under construction in Dallas is just flat out incorrect lol there are numerous towers being built in downtown and uptown, including a 25 story tower being constructed by museum tower, a 19 story building under construction in uptown, a 34 story tower in uptown, another 34 story tower in uptown, a proposed 46 story building by fountain place (google it, it is pretty cool looking tower) and a few others that have been proposed, I know this video is a few years old, but I figured I would just update your video's facts about Dallas 😂

I can see the Dallas skyline from my house. I thought the Comerica Bank Tower was the 2nd tallest building over the Renaissance Tower. It looks that way to me. It even has more stories 60 over 56. 😗????
@TowerGuy7 жыл бұрын
The amount of stories isn't always equivalent with a buildings height. And maybe the Comerica Bank Tower is build on a higher place and/or you don't see the Renaissance's spire from where you live which might make it look taller as the other tower?

As someone from Dallas it's just kinda sad. I mean Dallas has a big metro plex behind Houston today cause Houston just passed the DFW metro pop. Still though I mean for Dallas to be this big at 9th largest city in the U.S and third largest in Texas its sad. I'm from Dallas and Houston has ten times the skyline we have meaning more skyscrapers spread out and all over the place with a couple supertalls. My city of Dallas don't have none of that. Dallas doesn't have any supertalls and not alot of buildings and skyscrapers. I even think Seattle has a more skyscrapers then we have and 50 times a better skyline that is lit at night and looks good during the day. I'm from Dallas and we really can't compete with Houston they are on a much higher level then we are, where I am from in Dallas. Also I believe Fort-Worth is gonna surpass us cause it's growing we times faster than we are here in Dallas lol.
@georgekirby71502 жыл бұрын
Are you kidding? Dallas has 7.7 million metro and 1.3 million population growth in the last 10 years. DFW metro is larger than Houston, and is going to pass Chicago within the next 10 years.

First off. It’s not the Dallas metroplex. It’s the Dallas and Fort Worth metroplex. Fort Worth adds major numbers to the metro area. It’s not all Dallas. And yes Fort Worth will surpass Dallas in about 20 years. And I can’t wait because we hate Dallas. Fort Worth is better.
