Tens of thousands of people have designed & constructed skyscrapers over the decades. Your question is far too broad to be answered with a single individual's name. Is there a specific building you're interested in.
The first skyscraper was The Home Insurance building built in 1885 in Chicago.
There are several good websites on skyscrapers and proposed skyscrapers. I don't know the names off hand but if you type "proposed skyscrapers or future skyscrapers" and or just "skyscrapers" in google or yahoo's search engine, you should be able to find what you're looking for. I've seen plenty of info on some of the bigger skyscraper websites with info on buildings not yet built or even under construction. If that doesn't work try " future or proposed NYC skyscrapers".

The Tribune Tower was a skyscraper that was built in New York in 1923.
Two technological innovation which enabled the first skyscrapers to be built were the development of the elevator by inventor Elisha Otis and the design of steel structural supports for tall buildings by architect William Le Baron Jenney.
what effect did the building of the skyscrapers have on cities
It made iron into steel. With the production of steel skyscrapers were built, railroads built, and other things like ships made of steel.

Skyscrapers are built at the location where they will always be. The structure is so large that it would be impossible to move once built. The materials would be transported to the construction site and the skyscraper would be built there.
Probably because skyscrapers can hold more things than any other type of structure given the amount of area. Besides, would you rather go to an island with a hut, or a skyscraper?
