Top 10 Iconic Skyscrapers

"The term skyscraper became popular in the late 19th century as a result of public amazement at the tall buildings being built in Chicago and New York City. Today, skyscrapers are an increasingly common sight in large cities because they provide a favorable ratio of rentable floor space per unit area of land. But they are built not just for economy of space. Like temples and towers of the past, skyscrapers are considered symbols of a city's economic power. Not only do they define the skyline, they help to define the city's identity." - touropia
