Uptown Charlotte; It's looking real nice in these pictures and I can see lots of potential.

Neither are that impressive but I would go with ATL. Charlotte just doesnt do it for me. Plue Char skyline just doesnt seem that dense which is why ATL gets my vote. 2nd picture of ATL is a good one.

I guess it's hard to keep 'em down on the farm once they've been to St. Louis.

No reason to bash me, its just my opinion. There is nothing unique about neither skyline. If they werent labeled you could easily get them confused with most other skyline in the U.S. When it come to judging skylines I focus on density not height and I dont think either are that dense. However looks can be decieving and it may be different at ground level.

A skyline doesn't have to be unique to be impressive, and unique skylines aren't automatically impressive.

It shouldn't be that hard to be a top 20 American skyline....Atlanta as a whole I would argue is top 10 though

I think they are comparable. With Charlottes new scraper going up, I might give it the edge but only by a inch. I would have to say Atlanta has more infill though.
