A collaborative effort has been launched to model as many skyscrapers and landmarks of New York City as possible. FlightGear contributors have already "demolished" some generic skyscrapers in Manhattan, replacing them with models of such buildings as the Flatiron Building and the MetLife Building (formerly the PanAm building). With new land cover either pending or already on the mapserver, New York City is on its way to becoming a premier destination for open source flyers. | A collaborative effort has been launched to model as many skyscrapers and landmarks of New York City as possible.
