There isn't a coastal city in Florida that has the diversity of buildings much less the number of buildings as Miami. Miami has more buildings in it's metro area than the rest of the state combined on the coast. If they do look like Miami, it's because they copied them.

Well I feel like I've seen the skyline before and I don't like it. I'll admit its really nice at night though.

Miami has more of a beach front skyline dominated by residential towers.

Pretty much. I've never really cared for the skyline, even with the building boom going on. I'd rank it in my tops though for skylines at night.
