Austin Skyline 2015

Gray view of Austin in winter. You can see about six cranes so I'm sure the skyline includes those buildings today. Its like looking at the pyramids of Giza. You're in awe of the power and skill it takes to make these buildings. But you also realize the only way to make such monstrosities in the modern world is because some people have enormous wealth and others dont. With this level of dense building you'd think that there would be less driving but actually it seems to coincide with more people driving into town. Austin is not creating mass transit or any other greener transportation infrastructure consistent with its wealth and population and supposed values. Perhaps excepting the scooters.
