Did you zone for high density buildings?

Posts some screens so we can see what you are referring to.

All you have to do is open the screenshot after uploading it to Steam , then click on the
gear on the right hand side and click Share in the context menu. Copy the URL and past it into a thread.

This city is built on a Temperate themed map.

This city is built on a European themed map and as such, has European styled buildings, but you can have taller skyscrapers on a European themed map if you have level 5 high density assets as seen in one of my cites.

Here is one of my other cities with mix of vanilla and workshop high density residential buildings.

As WhiteKnight stated, your second city is using an European-themed map. The high density buildings of such style is different from ones built on other maps - European style medium rises rather than skyscrapers.

You can change this by using mods such as this one:

To add to that the buildings that come with different DLCs also have different heights for buildings if you have chosen that them in for a district. If you WANT tall buildings you might want to look at the Skyscraper DLC. I don't have that but it sounds like it might be helpful for you.

I don't use this mod and still get level 5 high rises on my European maps. Just saying.

You could but since OP is asking, this is the easy way out.

He did not ask about using any mods, just wondered why there were 2 different styles of buildings.

Still nothing wrong with my original answer.

I did not say skyscrapers were not possible in European themed maps, did I?
