Atlanta, followed by Houston, followed by Miami...the latter's is helped by the fact that it's visible from water (the port).

Give it up homers. Yet another poll where America's "fourth city" loses by a long shot to its neighbor to the east. Nevermind being fourth in the US, stinktown can't even compete in its region. That's like thinking you are playing in the nationals when you haven't even won state. Silly Houston.

That's why Houston is kicking Atlanta's ass and is leaving it in the dust.

You realize that's because of building code restrictions because of Miami's location within hurricane paths right? With new building technology as Polo just said that's not going to be the case much longer.

In total Highrises/Skyrises Miami has the third most in the country after NYC and Chicago.

Funny -- Atlanta beats Houston in every single poll on CD. Perhaps we should do a poll on which Southern city has the most deluded sense of importance so Houston can win one.
