What US City is home to the most skyscrapers?

• ID# 146.2 (reply to #146.1) - 12 Oct 1999
  According to the World Almanac high-rise listings, and the comparison of buildings over about 470-500 feet (up to 150 meters), New York City seems to win hands down, with Chicago on the second place. Don't know about the third place then... ED
  (Update: the American Skyscrapers site has an exact answer for buildings over 500 ft tall.) ED

    I'm pretty sure third place would be taken by Houston.

      It is Houston for sure. Also, in a weighed ranking that counts the height of the buildings as well as their number, Houstan is 3rd of the USA. In the world ranking it is 4th as Honk Hong slips in after Chicago. Details see The World's Best Skylines.
