Detroit has an enviable amount of historical architecture that many cities would kill for. Austin’s downtown isn’t really historical at all. In fact most of its skyline came about in the last 10-15 years...no exaggeration! San Antonio to the south of us reminds me a bit of Detroit with its historic downtown and never building anything tall/new. It’s nice when you can blend a bit of both in downtowns. I’m all for preserving history and not tearing structures down to make way for glass boxes.
