Favorite Unique Place??? (neighborhoods, rich, architectural) - General U.S. - City-Data Forum

Out of the 10 places listed which is your favorite metro area with a very unique feel to it? Do you have a specific memory, good or bad, from a unique city?

Between what you listed as options, I would say Rapid City as it is the only one besides Green Bay that is not hip to anything 'cool'.

Santa Fe, by far.

There's no city more unique, no city better in that regard, than New Orleans.

But where's San Antonio? San Antonio would be my second vote.

Santa Fe- at least the historic side is far and away my choice. But I have got to ask, what in the world is the least bit unique about Daytona Beach?

Dude, what about places in the Northeast? Historically rich and architecturally amazing.

I picked New Orleans.

And Green Bay?

Olympia??

I dont think San Fran is overly unique either. Its just a big CA city with a nice downtown and a few bizarre/neat neighborhoods. What big city doesnt have that stuff?

SF hands down.

Yeah, why Green Bay and Olympia? How are they any more unique than say, Cedar Rapids and Bend?

But SF? Steve-o, you missed so much. The setting, the land forms, the cultures, the weather, the landmarks, the streetscapes all make it unique!
