Nice little Mid-Card match up. Philly vs the Boston skyline. Despite being around FOREVER. Both Philadelphia and Boston don't really have Expansive Skylines. Never really hear Rave Reviews on eithers skyline.
Pittsburgh However! I Mean You Guys Gush Blush and go Crazy and Trip All over yourselves For That City and That Skyline.

THE MAIN EVENT: Therefore is Pittsburgh. I mean that city has Won polls on here against cities like Minneapolis, Austin, Kansas City, St Louis Atlanta, Any Midwest City under a 4 million person Metro.. Even on My Own Thread
https://www.city-data.com/forum/city-...kylines-4.html , Pittsburgh WON! Something must be special about Pittsburgh

So Let's Up the Ante and Welcome Pittsburgh to the Big League's and See How Much LOVE Y'all Really Have for Steel City Pittsburgh---- Since it's Your Darling City, and Your Baby. You Reading This, You Love Pittsburgh don't ya, That Golden Triangle Skyline, You just can't resist it Can ya. Pittsburgh, it's your Mistress, Your Side Piece Your Honey Cake. If It was a Person you'd date him, or her. Come On Admit it, Where you the one that voted Pittsburgh over Atlanta, or Minneapolis, or Austin?

Can this Metro of 2million go toe to toe with a Metro of 4 million and 6 million respectively. NOW IF PITTSBURGH WINS THIS It deserves Your Respect!! And we can Boost the Civic Morale of a old slightly declining Legacy City

-Better Most Impressive Skyline: Boston Philly or Pittsburgh

Philly
Boston

I don't like the bow-of-ship angle of my own city's skyline either.

Pittsburgh is a good city though.

Boston is a little small and looks good from angles. Philly is impressive and getting better all the time, Pittsburgh just has a nice look with the point and the rivers and bridges and all the forests. And when you emerge from the tunnel...that’s pretty neat!

IMO Pittsburgh is both the best and least impressive.

It’s set like a piece of Art almost while Boston does feel more impressive/Massive it isn’t very visually pleasing it’s kind of just a mass of 600 ft reddish/Brown buildings.

Philly gives off a similar sized to Boston vibe and a little more pyramidal but I like Pittsburgh’s look more.

I voted Pittsburgh: it’s skyline is the least expansive of the three, but I love that building that looks like a glass castle tower. The rivers are really nice too!

Yeah, pittsburgh for me. I am biased because I lived there. Boston and philly are no slouch and certainly bigger, but pitt is so pretty within the three rivers.
