They're suburbs in that they're outside Washington, not that they're typically "suburban". But the tax revenue goes elsewhere. And while prices may not lower substantially in the District, there will still be more room for people who are willing to pay them. That's not an insignificant concern for a city where half of the property is tax-exempt as is 60% of the workforce. In addition, it all depends on your definition of "skyscraper" but I (nor do many industry groups) consider a height of 160 feet to fit the bill or significantly change what people already love about Washington.
