boise’s tallest buildings are pretty small, but I have a feeling the next couple of decades will see the skyline really change significantly. should be fun to watch.
here’s the current list. Zion Tower (323 feet, under construction) http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...DSC_0016-7.jpg U.S. Bank Building (267 feet) http://icdn.images.touristlink.com/r...s-bank-bld.jpg One Capital Center (206 feet) http://livability.com/sites/default/...808KMY0598.jpg Grove Hotel (198 feet) http://tours.tourfactory.com/tours/m...1/18354148.jpg The Aspen (196 feet) http://www.theaspen.net/1new/images/...photo-left.jpg not included in this list is the Idaho State Capitol building, but it would rank third at 208 feet: http://forums.steves-digicams.com/at...ol-hdr-16-.jpg :cheers: |
