About New York City?

Question

How many skyscrapers are there? Seriously, because I read an article stating that Miami would have like 71 in the next six years, Dubai like 90, which in most of our minds would suggest that these cities are trying their best to emulate Manhattan. So I'm wondering, technically, how many there are in NYC; not just tall buildings, but those that can technically be considered as skyscrapers. I should have asked his question yesterday when I was blogging about the article ...

Answer 1

According to www.emporis.com, NYC has 5,509 skyscrapers. It is no suprise since a 12 story building it's tall enough to be a skyscraper.

Answer 2

Depends on your definition of "SkyScraper"

"a minimum height of approximately 150 meters or 492.12 feet ?"

The Skyscraper Museum would have the answer.
