Norfolk isn't the only city in the 1.7 million Hampton Roads metro (there are a total of 7). It's the primary business center, but it's not even the largest city anymore. So taking that into account, for a city of 200-250K, it's not so bad:

Imo, Jax's skyline is equal to its true peers (ex. Nashville, Louisville, Buffalo, Memphis, Birmingham, etc.)
Very true. For a metro of 1.3 million, its skyline is quite appropriate for its size:
