Nice to see you continue on this. I wanted to make an edit in the past days but i didnt get around to it yet, so lemme try to put my thoughts in words.
first off i noticed, even though you gave the buildings some perspective/depth they are incredibly narrow. buildings, hundreds of meters high, but only a few meters thick will not stand the test of time :P
i like how you changed the composition from a ton of buildings of similar height to something that leads the eye, but like others pointed out, it feels a tad empty now. One thing to remedy that could be more layers of buildings in the background fading out.
Another thing, since it feels kinda empty right now, you could add some towering silhouettes, buildings that will dwarf the ones in the foreground, make it more.. well.. mysterious, impressive, and a bunch of other adjectives probably.
Double7 mentioned bombs/destruction/explosions. i don't get the impression that this is what you're going for, but it tells that your viewers are not certain what actually you're going for. There is barely any story, all this tells us is, there's a big city covered in smog that is probably called panacea, if that's not the name of the building the sign sits on.
I'd still kinda like to address my points in form of an edit when i get around to it, since i feel i cannot accurately describe my thoughts on this without demonstrating what i mean :P
Keep at it!

Not sure what to do with the billboard right now, but I made a few changes.

Here are two version with different moods. I hope i managed to get accross my previous points with these.
Be bold. make things happen, try to imagine what things would happen, have happened, or might happen in this place. Look at references for inspiration. bladerunner, deus ex, mirrors edge, random scifi concept art images. theres a lot more you can do with this! And most of all: dont be lazy  >:D
