It's taller in real life. I swear.

Um, back to N'Arleans. Y'all lookin' bag-eyed and disarrayed. Y'gettin' enough sleep, an' I don' mean on da bus. Fergot to give up MEV's road survival tip: always carry a banana in yer backpack. Not in yer jacket, as it is subject to con'r'versy an' mis-unnerstandin'. But for the potassium jolt an' the "it's alright" feelin', bananas.

Maybe it'll seem bigger from the top looking down.

I had the same impression. I also wondered why I was more impressed by the Sears Tower than the CN Tower (which is taller). My guess is that the CN Tower doesn't look like the other buildings, so you cannot assess the scale as well (look at windows to count the stories, etc.).
