Manhattan looks greatest in terms of density and sheer numbers, but it's not the most striking silhouette.

Denver's skyline, especially when against the backdrop of the Rocky Mountains, is a sight to behold.

[According to the Poll here, NYC is the winner

NYC in terms of sheer size. Seeing the NYC skyline at night is one of the most beautiful things youll ever see in your lifetime, its intense. Chicago and Pittsburgh are 2nd and 3rd respectively (IMO).

NYC has the best skyline IMO in the nation. But as far as a powerful skyline. Got's to vote for Chicago. City has a population of 2.8 million and it has just towers over you when you least expect it in the middle of America.
