Miami Skyline: Third Most Dense in USA
During a recent HistoryMiami Museum tour I attended, (the museum’s) Resident Historian Dr. Paul George mentioned a fact I thought I would have known, that Miami boasts the third most dense skyline in the United States. I’m fairly certain I’d not heard this before.
Upon returning to my office, I decided to fact check this. How Miami ranks in this regard depends on how you count it, of course, but by one common measure, the number of skyscrapers at least 150 metres (490 ft) in height, Miami does indeed rank number 3 in the United States according to Wikipedia, trailing behind New York and Chicago.
