1. I am shocked by the new skyline since I lived there.

Lot's of needle dicks sticking up, luxury condos I suspect, unoccupied or just a way of parking money.
Midtown, is where I mean. Not so much downtown.

In architecture, a history course reminded us that skylines or tallest buildings tell the tale of culture and values during each era.

It was towers as in Bologna in the Dark Ages, cathedral spires later, then banks and corporations, and now the tallest things in Manhattan are mostly residential tower occupied by anyone's guess.
