It's the only building of significant height (something that's going to make a mark on the skyline) built in the last couple decades, but Pittsburgh has certainly built much more since then, with much of it being in neighborhoods outside the core downtown.
Much more impressive is what Pittsburgh has done down at the ground level anyway. I couldn't give a fuck if another 50+story tower ever gets built here or not. I'm much more happy to see infill/reuse/revitalization anyway. And considering the types of firms coming to Pittsburgh for significant operations centers like Google, Apple, Facebook, SAP, CSC, Uber, Bosch, Argo AI, etc. (i.e., tech), office towers aren't really what these companies look for anymore because they know they're employees generally don't want to work in a cubicle on the 46th floor.
Because working in a skyscraper sucks for the most part.
