First, you appear to have a stylistic approach that is specific and easy to see which differentiates you from other photographer's work that might also be presented. Exposure, focus and other technical skills are all good. I would suggest that you consider your vision or message. While many of the images are interesting, they are not all very unique. I'm a huge fan of buildings but unless there is something you are saying or showing something artistic, they are just snapshots of buildings. Again, we are all guilty of this. Look at your images and ask if there are strong graphic lines that you like and consider cropping or focussing on these. I'd agree that you should consider additional subject matter and add some close up work. Finally, be aware of "dead skies" which tend to hurt overall image balance. Ask yourself about your message. What do you see an what are you trying to show the viewer? Pick your top 10 and ask others to do the same and see how they compare.
Best of luck!
