× As my home is quite far from the heart of the city, so there is no tall building near my home.
✓ As my home is quite far from the heart of the city, there are no tall buildings near my home.
Use of 'there is' with a plural noun is incorrect; plural subject requires 'there are'. Also remove redundant 'so' after 'As'. Suggestion: use 'there are no tall buildings' to match plurality and flow.
× There usually be a usual building like home and school which is a small school that is not tall.
✓ There are usually ordinary buildings such as houses and a small school, which is not tall.
'There usually be' is incorrect verb form; use 'there are usually'. 'A usual building like home and school' is unclear and uncountable; use 'ordinary buildings such as houses and a small school'. Ensure noun plurality and article use.
× I usually take a photo of the high rise building because it will give me a different viewpoint and shape.
✓ I usually take photos of high-rise buildings because they give me different viewpoints and shapes.
Singular 'a photo of the high rise building' conflicts with general habit; plural is preferred. 'High rise' should be hyphenated 'high-rise' as a compound adjective. Use present simple 'give' for habitual actions and plural pronoun 'they' to agree with 'buildings'.
× Many skyscraper in town very beautiful and have a unique shape so I usually take photo for them of them.
✓ Many skyscrapers in town are very beautiful and have unique shapes, so I usually take photos of them.
Subject 'skyscraper' must be plural 'skyscrapers'; add auxiliary verb 'are' for description. 'Have a unique shape' should match plural 'have unique shapes'. Word order and preposition errors: use 'take photos of them'. Remove duplicated words.
× Since, uh, since I was a kid. Empire State Building in New York is very famous, as is the most iconic building and with their skyscraper and the modern style.
✓ Since I was a kid, the Empire State Building in New York has been very famous and is one of the most iconic buildings with its skyscraper design and modern style.
Original has sentence fragments and repetition 'since'. Combine into one complete sentence. Use 'the Empire State Building' with article. Use present perfect 'has been' to express continued fame since childhood. 'Their skyscraper' is incorrect pronoun; use 'its skyscraper design'.
× So I would like to visit them one day.
✓ So I would like to visit it one day.
Refers to a singular building 'Empire State Building', so use singular pronoun 'it' instead of 'them'.
× I prefer to live in the low rise building more than the high rise one because I think it's more safe and convenient for my life lifestyle.
✓ I prefer to live in a low-rise building rather than a high-rise one because I think it is safer and more convenient for my lifestyle.
Use indefinite article 'a' for general preference and hyphenate 'low-rise' and 'high-rise'. Use 'rather than' for comparison. 'More safe' is non-idiomatic; use comparative 'safer'. 'Life lifestyle' is redundant; use 'lifestyle'.
× For example, in the earthquake situation, the tall building always have more dangerous to escape and the road ride is more accessible.
✓ For example, in an earthquake, tall buildings are always more dangerous to escape from, and roads are less accessible.
'The tall building always have' has subject-verb disagreement; use 'tall buildings are'. 'More dangerous to escape' needs rephrasing to 'more dangerous to escape from'. 'The road ride is more accessible' is unclear and incorrect; likely meant that roads are less accessible, so correct accordingly. Use 'in an earthquake' rather than 'in the earthquake situation'.
