Rust Belt architectural road trip recs?

I’ve seen a lot of awesome buildings in the rust belt posted here!. Has me thinking vacation/road trip of those states may be really fun. Thinking Milwaukee to start? Or Minneapolis? Or Duluth? And then ending in NYC. What cities and specific buildings would you strongly recommend? Also do they have tours? Thanks in advance!

Carew Tower is possibly my favorite skyscraper in Ohio. What's yours? And why?

Completed the same year as the Empire State Building, Carew Tower is a 49-story, 574 foot (175 m) Art Deco building in Cincinnati. When completed in 1931, it was the second tallest building in Ohio behind only the Terminal Tower in Cleveland, which was completed the previous year.

It's possibly my favorite skyscraper in Ohio! I was curious what yalls favorite building in Ohio is? And why?

Chicago from Sears

OC. Went around taking pictures of Chicago skyscrapers this past weekend. This one was my favorite - the clouds hung low on a typical midwest Spring day, justifying the name we’ve given these beasts. (Note Hancock’s antenna scraping the sky)

This sub sucks.

All these posts asking which skyline is better is redundant and annoying.

Gold Coast, Australia

Population:

742.600 2024

640.778 2021

566.100 2010

410.100 2000

29.034 1950

The city is growing at such a high rate, that it's probably the next Australian city with a population of 1 million (the 5th). It had the largest growth rate from 2011-2023.

It also host Australia's highest skyscraper. The" Q1 Tower", at 322m/1059ft.
