I guess it should come as no surprise that the biggest cities have the best skylines. Generally speaking, the bigger the city, the bigger the downtown area, the bigger the business and industrial sector, the taller the buildings and the greater the view. Each of these cities has a rich historical architectural history—check them out, and enjoy the view! New York City, Chicago, Boston, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Houston, San Francisco, Miami, Seattle, Washington, D.C.
There are a few museums that celebrate architectural history. We recommend these:
- National Building Museum – Washington, D.C.
- Octagon Museum (American Architectural Foundation) – Washington, D.C.
- Skyscraper Museum – New York City
- Museum of Modern Art – New York City
- MIT Museum – Cambridge, Massachusetts
