An interesting statistic has just appeared on Reddit, and it showcases the new fact that Toronto has the second highest number of high-rise buildings in North America.  The Redditor Redkulat highlights the fact that as a city with a similar population to Chicago, Los Angles and Houston it’s interesting to see that we have more high-rise buildings than all of them combined.  With such a massive and growing city, it’s imperative that the city’s other infrastructure continues to grow with the level of commercial and condo development.

Here are the current number of high-rise buildings in other cities.

New York: 6,208

Toronto: 2,373

Mexico City: 1,402

Chicago: 1,292

Los Angeles: 548

Houston: 516
