Like is there a specific reason or is it just a design choice? Or do they have so many tall windows to let as much sunlight in as possible?
It just occurred to me since the futuristic full glass look of skyscrapers really stands out against normal building surrounding them.
In: Engineering
Skyscrapers are steel-framed. Leaving the option of all glass or not.
Smaller buildings 2- 5 stories are usually wood framed. And more space is taken up by structure and the need for solid sheer walls. Leaving less room for Windows.
