But it’s not some random architectural concept. The reason the skyscrapers are shaped like this is not to obscure Saint Paul’s Cathedral. (By the way, the top of this monumental construction is visible even from King Henry VIII’s Mound. And that’s a great distance away!) Anyway, there are also other sights, like the Tower of London and the Palace of Westminster. They have their own viewpoints. So, not to ruin London’s skyline, it’s not allowed to build anything that would block these monuments.
Most European cities already existed when the US started to build its first skyscrapers. That’s why they didn’t have much space to fit in giant buildings. Evenly zoned cities were the result of their steady growth throughout the years. For example, in Lisbon, there’s a viewpoint in Eduardo VII [Edwardo cetimo] park
