besides manhattan, there really aren't that much skyscrapers outside of it. the other 4 boroughs are mostly residential and pretty ghetto for the most part. but honestly, unless you know the city well and can avoid wasting time, there isn't a lot outside of manhattan worth seeing. even though they have subways, it can take 20-40 minutes to take a train out the 4 surrounding boroughs.
you might want to consider going to six flags great adventures in jersey. it's about 1-2 hrs drive out of manhattan i believe.

No. I am talking about in the future! Right now...Dubai is still a progressing city for modern architecture. Read my quote again.
I would not say HongKong skycrapers since the architecture is just a plain, old, same skycraper except for propably less than 5 skycrapers I can remember. HongKong will be like Singapore except it is cleaner. Oh wait...I think, Singapore has pretty, decent, daring skycrapers architecture unlike HongKong.
