Downtown Dallas is not the center of the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex.  Arlington is actually close to center, as is the Dallas/Ft. Worth airport.

Some of those choices appear to be more about sprawl, then skyline though.  I think most of them are good choices though.

There's a lot of views of Kansas that I really enjoy.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain that is pouring like an avalanche coming down the mountain
