those resort islands seem pretty neat, a little too upper class for me, though

But I'll have it later.

and Koosie, I Hope you have a good time.
Besides, they're making more buildings more than The US and NYC.

Excuse my blatant patriotism, but I really hope we come back in the whole skyscraper scene. The fact that we haven't had anything to show for ourselves in height since the 70's is disgraceful. Though for style I think we still have something left. Though nothing like they have in other countries, and definitely nothing like what we had before the rise of glass curtain skyscrapers.
