I used to work in one large building in Nashua.  Its at One Indian Head Plaza, its coral colored, ugly and about 7 stories.  I think Manchester has a few bank buildings and such a lot larger though.

There was an article in the CM about a month ago. It had the tallest buildings for each state in NE.
I think NH was 20 or 24 stories.  A building in Manchester.

I don't think you can call a building a Sky Scraper until it has 25 or more floors.  ;D

Agreed. They're a pain to drive around, and the drafts around them can't be healthy, city air gets stuck down there, and they trap heat.

Besides that, skyscrapers mean cities, and cities mean city governments, usually big ones.

Mt Washington scraped the sky to the tune of 234 MPH. 6288ft above the rising tide.

On average, one person per year dies up there. It's wicked!

I'd turn back if I were you. ;)
