Hello guys im new. Im a philadelphian and i love the skyline. Architecture and skylines are my thing. I bike ride around the city often and its alot of fun. I saw this forum when i was looking at a yimby article and seeing you guys talk about skylines and new projects looked so cool to me. I have really cool photos from when i was bike riding but i have a hard time sending them. Sry

I recently went back to City Hall for necessary reshoots, and they were successful!

The wildfire smoke was reminding me of these shots of Philadelphia in 1973
Not sure if this is smog or smoke, but it looks as dangerous
And the towers you see under construction are the two Centre Square towers and 1650 Arch Street, all three towers were completed in the next year then 1818 Market Street popped into the skyline
