^ I think he was just joking cause there's so much progress there.

Its simply unbelievable. What is going on in Miami right now is something I have never seen before with my own eyes in any American city. It is even more impressive in person.

When I was there a couple weeks back, downtown alone I counted about thirty cranes easy, doubling the existing building stock there. And these aren't little dinky ones, but true skyscrapers. And not just downtown either, but areas north, the whole Miami Beach, and all those little islands everywhere. Coming from Chicago and whats going on here, it takes a lot to impress me, but Miami certainly does with its current boom. It just seems so alive.

Anyway, great pics too.

nothing that impressive honestly...height yes, but the designs look rather meh. But i could be wrong as im not overly familiar with the renderings and the such.

what a compliment! Now you know why we are always hyping the place when it comes to the boom!

Yeah, it was just a joke. Like a friendly punch in the shoulder. The joke is that Miami's growing so fast that pics from a few months ago are like pics from a decade ago of slower-growing cities (exaggeration, of course). I used to make cheesy jokes like this on here years ago... thought it was old enough to present again finally! No?

I like how you were kind enough to call me Mr. Troll.
