How are you gonna compare a desert city that literally began less than 30 years ago to an established city that's been there for centuries and is in a relatively moderate climate with trees and lakes and shit like that?
Doesn't make sense. Give Dubai another 50 or so years and then we can make some comparisons.

btw how was the last earthquake
Sebastian Morris
The earthquake happened in eastern Japan in 2011 didn't affect to highways in Tokyo so much, but the earthquake happened in Kobe region in middle of 90s gave significant damage to highways. Pic is related.
Samuel James
Tokyo highway became a water slider because of a massive snow fall in 2014.

There's something really boring and mundane about Brisbane. I kind of prefer Perth, or even Gold Coast, though they're somewhat smaller.
Evan Stewart
I was considering to include Gold Coast instead but Brisbane is larger
apart from the Infinity Tower yes Brisbane is pretty boring I mean it looks like just some average boxy American skyline
Joshua Nguyen
anyway yesterday you were saying you hope the HK towers will raise above the hills - they never did because there are height restrictions in that area, skyscrapers actually can't be taller than the hills
Adam White
Well, Gold Coast isn't that small, but I suppose it's a bit smaller. It's funny how the skyscraper district there is technically a suburb.
How high are those hills, anyways?
Nolan Baker
no idea probably like 150-200m+
Brody Jones
reee lads please don't tell me Dubai will lose in the first round again
last year it atleast lost to another top 10 skyline
Parker Sanchez
D-Don't think they're that small.
Colton Sanchez
Well, Victoria Peak there is just over 500 meters, which isn't much larger than the tallest tower.
Leo Edwards
oh yes im stupid
they are like 300-400 on average i think
