  • people need to hop off philly becuase most of the people saying the skyline sucks havent been to philly i bet. im proud to live in philly the skyline is beautiful and dont say philly's skyline sux when all u see is a picture of it from google images.....

  • i love philly. is a great city with a lot of stuff to look . i like it because is a big city . is not like ny eveybody living like crazy to much people, also is not like if you in a small city . philadelphia is in the middle have every that have a city like ny but in small scale. also it can be compare with any city of some of the best park , building food and ect.

  • change the radio station please

  • Go Philly! Oh and for you people who say were "lacking" in skyline were getting the American commerce center!! Look it up! Its gonna be the 2nd tallest building in the U.S.

  • @1legomaster no its gonna be the tallest!

  • So where do cities like Philadelphia and Boston fsll into the major city category then?

  • Philadelphia is the 5th most popular city in the U.S.

  • @flopppy fucking dumbass philly is the 5th most populous city in the us

  • @ChocoAlGalaxia Atlanta is nothing like Philadelphia

    Philly is so much bigger

    Atlanta has about 500,000 people whereas Philly has over a million people

  • Chicago and NYC is overrated in a sense that it is not as asthetcially pleasing as Philadelphia

    I have been to both cities and all they have is sardine can like city where shops and restuarants pile up on each other which makes it a busy city

    but let's be real Philadelphia has it's own charm and uniquness and it can't be comparaed to any other city

    Philly is not meant to be a NYC or a Chicago and it is not meant to be like a Miami

    Philadelphia is Philadelphia

  • philly has a lot of character but skyline is one thing that is lacking.

  • @13579113151 its not lacking actually when you live in west or south philly and you have a skytop deck the skyline is beautiful

  • yall know nothing NY is more than double the size of Chicago sounds like u all want ur city to be half as big as ny not to mention downtown bk and jersey city oh and newark 5 miles away look it up If your walking around NY at 3 am its still more busy than ur cities at rush hour

  • And Chicago's skyline is not bigger than NYC no matter how much it hurts it just not New York City has over 2,000 more skyscraper's than Chicago. emporis.com

  • Comment removed

  • Philly is much bigger than Atlanta come on now let's not get ahead of ourselves.

  • that MUST be from the Schuylkill Expressway... The ONLY AND ONLY :P

  • GUYS ,check my videos of all the cities i've visited in united states ,  chicago, cleveland, philadelphia, washington d.c., kentucky, cincinnati etc.... just look for (carlo2331 ) and let me know if you like them ,thanks

  • Nice vid here -- I also dig the Philly skyline as the train from Atlantic City gets closer to 30th Street Station. Anyone know wheter that would be the Delaware River or the Schulkyll [sp?] River that pops into view beneath the skyline?

  • Sorry but the Washington DC area has the 2nd most traffic congestion out side of LA folks now google that shit forreal!!!! Chicago might be congested as a city but traffic wise DC is 2nd. Once again google that shit.

  • n yea Philys skyline isnt as big as Chicago's or Manhattan's skyline but it still looks nice! and i wouldnt be sayin Phily has a small skyline, i mean come on look at Manhattans skyline they has alot of small buildings!

  • Stop hating Manhattan has big buildings. Chicago skyline doesn't compare to NY, we all know that. Chicago isn't big enough, it's small.NY is an empire. That's y its called the empire state. Small as chicago

  • lol, why u on phillys vidz fo'? lol, like i said manhattan does have ALOT of small buildings, Chicago's skyline is just as big as manhattans its spreads for miles all the way to the suburbs, trust me ive been to manhattan n jerzy, i aint hatin just sayin da truth, at least yall got times sqaure but yall skyline small n outdated! etha way NY is my 2nd fav city after Chicago. i got much luv for ny, big ups to union city n da rest of jerzy n phily n ny! do yall thang!

  • Damn u every where too lol. Chicago is as big as downtown manahttan but we go uptown it's a different ball game. I just moved to union city too but I'm gonna move to jersey city.

  • naw manhattan is a small island, its 22 square miles, while Chicago is 224 square miles, u shud no mahattan is the smallest borough of nyc, n Chicago skyline is much bigger then its downtown,which is the loop, it sretches south to south loop and north to the near north side, thats where The John Hancock Building is, the shoppin district, then it keeps goin like 40 miles north to Evanston, IL, even that suburb has condos n buildings but its not Chicago anymore! Chicago skyline is BIG & TALL!

  • I'm talking about buildings and structure. Chicagos structure is the size of downtown manhattan. I'm not even adding midtown and uptown

  • did u see the video of Chicago i sent u? if u saw it u wud if seen its bigger n streches as far as manhattans skyline, and Chicago's skyline keeps growing, it already streches north to the suburbs now its gonna start growin south to indiana! i went to NYC cuz of Times Square not becuz of its skyline, becuz manhattan doesnt really have alot of supertalls, the only one dat stood out to me was empire state building, the rest of manhattans buildings are small!

  • I drove on the turnpike today I saw the whole skyline all the buildings stand out where were u driving at. Chicago only has 6 buildings taller than NY and it's not that much taller and we are still building even bigger skyscrapers.

  • @mb0122 Chicago only has one building taller than NY so far. I know that the spire is going to be built soon.

  • @WorldTradeCenter2011 Do you think it will be done it's on hold thought!!!

    Im glad Houston has a few going up here is atleast the 3rd best city for skyscrapers in america!!!

  • It's not on hold.The Amercian Commerce Center is approved for Philadelphia. Good for Houston that they are growing. Philly is growing now too and it needs to. It is the birthplace of America. They are supposed to start construction on the American Commerce Center in a few months. It should be finished by 2013 or 2014.

  • @WorldTradeCenter2011 Yea the spire is on hold a saw it in person a few weeks ago!!!

    yea philly is pretty beast i like that movie law abiding citizin!!!

  • I am a resident of Philadelphia, and I am pretty sure the Spire isn't on hold. It seems like the spire is the most crucial part of the buiding. I will look it up though. You may be right.

  • @WorldTradeCenter2011 oh really you are, Rocky lol

    No i mean the Chicago spire!!!

  • Yea the Chicago Spire is on hold, which means that this could be the 1st or 2nd tallest in the country by the time of it's completion.

  • i agree they to improve Philly

    it is already a beautiful city but they can do so much more with it there is in enought space

    the one thing i would love to see is them cleaning up North Broad Street

  • @sexyrican77trey Unfortunately, NY no longer has the magnificent Twin Towers of the World Trade Center. Now it only has 2 supertall buildings, the Empire State Building, and the Chrystler Building.

  • @ mb0122,aye, check ur inbox,the little mail icon next to the sign out botton, the videos i sent u shud be there! btw Chicago's Trump Tower is 1,362 feet (415 m) high, thats the same size of Two World Trade Center, the shorter tower of the Twin Towers, btw it doesnt look like its Chicago's 2nd tallest building, to me it looks like its 4th after Sears Tower,John Hancock building, and Aon Center! in otha words the Twin Towers wud look small in Chicago's Skyline!

  • It's still like NY though where are all the people at lol. NY cabs and cars are jammed pack bumper to bumber horns are blowing and the streets are flooded with millions of people I don't see that in chicago but nice video

  • @mb0122, yea i diven down da turnpike n i saw alot of small buildings, only empire state building stood out, Chicago has the worlds tallest skyline n dats a fact look it up on wikipedia, and Chicago is just the same alot of ppl walkin everywhere traffic backed up for miles, u do know Chicago is americas 2nd most congested city after LA, look it up on myfoxchicago, always stuck in traffic, worse the NYC, and Chicago is Americas 2nd most crowded city after NY! Chicago=Best of both worlds=amazing!

  • The Twin Towers wud of looked small becuz the Sears Tower(WillisTower) is 1,750 ft to the antennas & the John Hancock Building is 1,500 ft to the antennas, the Twins Towers were in the 1,300s mark, they would look short just like Chicago's 2nd tallest building,Chicago Trump Tower, which is the same hieght of the smaller twin tower!

  • Philadelphia is where the united states started at and it is not crowded and it might not have alot of skysrapers but it is still a good somewhat city and i am not from philly i am from new york but i be in philly alot

  • it might not be as crowded as New York or Chicago but its more crowded then LA! ive been to LA n Phily n LA has that laid back small family homes suburban feel to it its just spread out! i think Chicago would be bigger then LA if it would be as twice as spread out then new york! phily has a more city feel to it then LA does!

  • @sexyrican77trey Chicago is bigger than LA! LA is suburban like Atlanta. Philly is has more of a big city feel than ATL but ATL is bigger.

  • @OvertownWhiteB33136 , yea Chicago is bigger, LA is just a spread out suburb just like Houston, LA shouldnt be the 2nd largest city and Houston the 4th largest,all they did was just expand their city limits by annexing suburb(thats why their so suburban,to me Phily feels bigger then H-town, and Chicago bigger then LA,Chicago and Phily are both crowded, urban and busy

  • @OvertownWhiteB33136 , you said Chicago is bigger then LA becuase you probably been to both city and you saw LA is just a big suburb while Chicago is a big city(2nd only to NY) crowded,congested, crowded,etc. to me after visting its like this.. America's biggest cities

    1.NYC-big crowded busy city

    2.Chi-big crowded busy congested(more traffic then NY IMO) city

    3.Phily-urban busy city

    LA=spread out congested suburb

    Houston- VERY spread out subub

  • @OvertownWhiteB33136 , and most cities in the south are suburban,the farther south you go the more suburban the cities get , the cities in the north are far more urban then most of the sun belts cities can imagine,NYC,Chicago,Phily,etc.­.....

  • @sexyrican77trey New York and Chicago are huge but Philly is not as big as Atlanta and no where near as urban as Miami. Philly is a cool city though. Agree with every thing else you said though.

  • @OvertownWhiteB33136 Speaking of suburban , L.A. is very suburban hell Atlanta has a more impressive skyline. LA is a hugeeeeeeeee suburban area , but a cool city too.

  • @OvertownWhiteB33136 u never seen the skyline from a west or south philly rooftop deck like me, the only skyline of philly u ever seen was from the internet not in reall life. its all u people from nyc, chicago, or atlanta that dont know shit about philly. oh atlanta has a better skyline bullshit, go to south philly at night or go to two liberty place at night and go to the top floor and look out a windowu will see one of the best skylines ever

  • @ComplicatedMODZ yea they should also see comcast building at night

  • @OvertownWhiteB33136 im from miami bitch and moved to philly and philly is fucking huge the farms right outside of the city are still in philly also hell yea its suburban have u ever been to philly frickin manyunk is suburbun

  • @ComplicatedMOD do you really live in philly because philly is far from being suburban. You are from the south and you come up north and call philly suburban. Miami is much more suburban than philly because my pops lives in miami and i visit him all the time. Philly is a big city with alot of people walking around. There aren't any farms in the city of philadelphia.

  • @OvertownWhiteB33136 Since when is ATL bigger than Philly?

  • Center city is nice, but just a few miles off, is the real streets. And Philadelphia is a city to worry about expecially. Detroit and other cities probably have way more authority than philadelphia, and you know how many crimes are dropped and not caught in philadelphia? Murder capital will always, have its crown. thats my opinion on it, you can agree or disagree, but big ups to detroit and los angeles

  • And don't talk Bout the Philly. Im proud to be a philadelphian. And Center City is the 3rd safest metroploist in the WORLD.

  • @jusjus115 what is 2nd and 1st

  • @jusjus115 I don't understand why people have this gross misconception that Philadelphia is a filthy, ugly city. It's ridiculous. I was there in 2008 for New Year's and loved it. My friends and I kept walking around the city sarcastically joking "looking at this filth ... this place is a s***hole" because we didn't find anything dirty! I'm going back this year for New Year's. We're staying in Rittenhouse Square this time. And the subways are much cleaner than Boston or NYC!

  • What are you talking about. You're kiding right? This is better than Manhattan.

  • shitty skyline

  • @Steelerguy10 Not for long. Soon we will be building the American Commerce Center, which will be taller than the Empire State Building and the Sears Tower.

  • @WorldTradeCenter2011 how tall is it gonna be?

  • The building is going to be exactly 1510ft tall.

  • @WorldTradeCenter2011 oh thats cool

  • philly is safe but of course there are places that aren't like EVERY city! You just have to be smart and you'll be fine. Philly is a great city!

  • Cool video, And taping while driving on the Schuylkill Expressway..wow. THAT takes guts..heheh.

    Just teasing, I've done it myself! :)

  • eye of the tiger wouldve given this video justice haha!

  • thats "i need your lovin" by teena marie

  • What's name of this song.

  • Both are osim. COMPARE THE TWO.Philly rocks.New york rocks. New york has the Statue of liberty. We have the liberty bell. We have Cheesesteak and they have Pizza. We have glass skyscrapers.they... Have mostly concrete. So yeah we are even. Besides if ur getting mad at eachother for fricken skyscrapers then just fricken shut up.First of all no skyscrapers were built in philly because of the curse of billy penn. So fricken we only had until 1989 to rebuild the buildings. now we will get taller

  • That's about as close as you wanna get to this city...if that!

  • im sick of seeing comments about how bad and dangerous it is in philly its actully a very safe city, u wanna now some dangerous cities LA and detroit complain about those not philly

  • Ever watch the news in Philly? Try telling the victims how 'safe' it is. I'm sick of people with their head in the clouds. About the only thing safe about Philly is the skyline filmed from a distance! Sure LA and Detroit may be bad,but who wants to split hairs? Best to be as far away from those places as possible!

  • the news makes everything sound 10 times worse than it really is sure ill admit there is violence but its declining at a fast rate and compared to most cities its a great one to live in and im proud of it

  • @JoeNJ1 Philadelphia is not as dangerous of a city as people percieve it to be. It is about as dangerous as NY or any other thriving American City. Crime has gone down in recent years too.

  • It's not perception...I live there and see the news every night and it's sickening...not to mention the stuff we don't hear about!

  • I also live in Philadelphia, but I do not believe that it is any worse than any other American city in regards to crime. Crime has gone down over the past thirty years in Philly.

  • ahh the city I rule over!

  • kiss my balls stupid fuckkkkkkkk.

  • Im from mansfield, ohio & I went to philly for a week a few years ago & loved it. Had a great time downtown they have a poopin night scene shoppin & all. Hope to go back sometime.

  • its that teena marie singing

    NYC = the most overrated city in the world

  • @jalfredl Ny does not suck all the famous actors and people are from new york

  • @lolmoper

    Well, as of today man, most people are famous just because of their looks,. not their talent or lack there of. Overall i understand what you're saying. i don't hate new york , but when it comes to my hometown philly, i have no chose but to defend it. and it's hard to control my emotions at times .

  • omg that entire argument was pathetic....

  • I'm from Wilmington, but i come up to Philly all the time for church. I'm in college out at Indiana right now - can't WAIT to come home at xmas and see philly again.

  • rittenhouse square is a pretty place too.

  • 95 is awesome, I know the speed limit is usally from 50MPH-65MPH But I go by the route sign and go 95MPH on it.

  • haha. Nice!

  • beautiful skyline, great architecture.

  • Not as good a view as Mann Center in Fairmount park.

  • guess what? Dubai skyline is fake

  • lol. Are you crazy? Dubai has the fakest skyline on the planet! Philly is a REAL city with a history and uniqueness. Dubai is nothing more than a highrise disneyland.

  • Ah, Liberty Place... I love thos buildings It's a shame they didn't make them taller.

    Now Comcast center is up and domminating the skyline...

  • lol

    Bird Shit at 55 Seconds

  • Next time bring someone to hold the camera for you ...u might get better picture and u can avoid getting a ticket ..lol

  • That's not me.

  • this sucks. it doesn't do the skyline justice. how about keeping the camera steady and turning down that crappy music.
