@@swaggytjmatthews4685 Skyscrapers aren't built for a anesthetics. The size is determined by need. Most corporate buildings in Memphis are either in Midtown or on Poplar Ave. Memphis downtown has evolved into mostly a residential area. The demand to live downtown is so great that many corporate buildings are being turned into apartments and condos.

The problem is the ground. Memphis lies on a fault line and the cost for building high rises on the kind of soil it sits on is very expensive.

Smart man though, we didn't become the most dangerous city in America from these beautiful neighborhoods you see here, there is another Memphis. But THIS Memphis is what draws so many, the amazing architecture, the pyramid...stick to these areas if you visit, and you should be just fine. great vid

I often took chartered bus groups on a "rolling tour" to give them an overview of the city before going into any of the usual attractions. There is a lot that could be said about the city just doing a ride around.

I'm impressed, it certainly is a very clean city, no litter at all, and they do not seem to have a homeless problem like most cities have either. I know they have a crime problem but still looks like it would not be a bad place to live and work. My only con comment would be they have an excessive amount of stop lights and speed bumps which would be very annoying trying to get someplace in a hurry.

As someone who lives in downtown Memphis, I can assure you there is a very large homeless issue. If you look closely in the video you can see plenty of homeless people. It's just cold this time of year, so many are bundled up under building entrances. There is a mission near Danny Thomas that serves as the only shelter most of them can get. As a result, they stick around the area.
