In the past few months political discussions unrelated to skyscrapers/affiliated subjects have become more common.
I understand we live in turbulent times, and we all have different viewpoints; however this is not the appropriate sub for these discussions.
No, posting a picture of skyscrapers in Moscow or Tel Aviv is not inherently political; but if you’re going to title your post something like “Moscow Empire” you have to see how that can be considered baiting.
Moving forward, political comments and posts will be more heavily scrutinized; and repeat offenders may even get banned.

In the poll asking whether AI should or shouldn’t be accepted on the sub, thankfully an overwhelming majority of us have voted against its use.
AI slop posts are now completely banned from the sub, official renderings released by building developers are to be the only reasonable exception.

From Wikipedia:
“The four original Prudential headquarters buildings were built from 1892 to 1911 as early examples of steel framing in Newark, clad in gray Indiana limestone with Romanesque styling, the work of George B. Post.[4][5] The four buildings were known as the Main Building, the North Building, the West Building, and the Northwest Building, and were the tallest in the city at the turn of the 20th century. All were demolished in 1956 to make way for the current Prudential Plaza building.”

The new skyline of East Toronto with Lake Ontario and Ashbridges Bay in the foreground, the thick green canopy covering the Beach(es) neighbourhood as it rises up to 104m ASL. Other tower blocks can be seen, including Main Square and Crescent Town.

Took this picture from a parking garage. Admittedly, the skyline is very small for a city of 1M residents, but I find it endearing.

From Daytonian in Manhattan Blog:
“The Metropolitan Realty Building was completed in 1893. The plans had been tweaked and the finished structure was 15 stories tall. As promised, its quadripartite Renaissance Revival design boasted extensive fenestration--the hundreds of windows grouped, for the most part, in threes and fours. Other than limestone lintels and bandcourses that defined each section, Wheeler's design focused on utility rather than architectural beauty.
The Metropolitan Realty Building sat within the printing and publishing district, and Smith had designed the building to support heavy printing presses and similar machinery. Among the initial tenants were W. B. Keller Printing & Publishing, Gardiner Binding and Mailing Company, H. A. Rost Printing & Publishing Company, and the Blumenberg Press.
In 1955, the Metropolitan Realty Building was demolished to make way for the Park Row approach and the widening of the roadways that accessed the Brooklyn Bridge.”
