Austin’s skyline has changed a lot over the years, and that change isn’t stopping any time soon.

The skyline has three new skyscrapers set to be completed in the next few years, all dwarfing the current tallest towers in the city. We know it can be hard to keep track, so here’s a ranking of the five tallest buildings we know of in ATX right now.
