Great thread idea!

Cleveland's Key Tower is a skyscraper gem! It was designed by one of the world's great architects, Cesear Pelli. Just like North Carolina's tallest which is also a beaut! Its Key Tower's brother. These two are a big reason why Cleveland and Charlotte's skylines look very similar.

See I always thought both the same for the towers and the skyline I didnt know that Pelli did the Key Tower that would explain why they are eerily similar looking also in height.

Thanks btw Beavercreek!

I'll throw a wrench in the works and vote for Wyoming's White Hall. Not only is it the shortest on the list, at 12 stories--but it's also the only college dorm on the list.
