If you only build a new skyscraper every year or so, downtown Austin doesn’t seem like it’s changing much. Looking at the skyline, it’s familiar — hey there’s the capitol, and the Frost tower, and… — but when I think about the full scope of changes over decades, it’s almost unrecognizable.

@manton From I-35, Frost tower is almost lost among all other taller buildings

@manton I was looking at a photo I took of London in 2012 the other day, and was surprised by how many skyscrapers in the City were ‘missing’. 2012 doesn’t seem that long ago, but long enough for a good deal of change.
