I was talking about the Space Needle. And I'd like to echo elfyum's sentiment.

Seattle is awesome. I'd just hate to be there when that once-every-300-years, mega-9.2 earthquake hits. It's overdue, they claim. ![]() |

I've always been intrigued by the Chrysler Building in the N.Y.C. skyline.
As it happens, there was a special about the Chrysler Building last night. It seems to be restored close to its original glory. Are there any people on these forums that ever had the chance to explore the building? If so, is it worth the visit to N.Y.C alone? |

I'm a bit spoiled as I can walk to a train station and be in Manhattan in 30-40 minutes for $1.50. I will say that if you like museums, cuisine from probably every country in the world, live music venues, and just a great place to walk around new York is absolutely 'worth it'! |

Its readily apparent youve never been here, as your foolish comments show. Really, that is the dumbest thing Ive ever read on this site yet, be proud of that fact!!!!! You hold the claim to the lamest, most idiotic response Ive yet read. LOLOLOL Wow, some people are just clueless. Ive yet to meet someone who came here and DIDNT like it. Face it bucko, there are 2 million MORE people in Chicagoland alone than all of Washington (and almost Oregon combined). Dont give me this crap that noone wants to live here. Really, really, really dumb statement. Perhaps all those rain clouds make you depressed? Get a clue and know your cities before you post something that rediculously stupid. But hey, thanks for the good chuckle! Wow. ![]() Sorry Seattle folks, I loved visiting Seattle and found it to be a unique city, but I just disliked the Space Needles' design, just an opinion. Apparently Mr. Houston is clueless and wants nothing more than to start crap. Trust me, there are a few buildings in Chicago that I dislike as well, every city has em! Be proud that your skyline looks nice! In fact, had I not voted for Chicago, Seattle or NYC would have been my first choice, then Pittsburgh. Last edited by Steve-o; 03-10-2007 at 01:11 PM. |

Now let's not turn this into city vs. city war. If your from Chicago, you know people are going to talk down your city. The same with Seattle, or any city. Remember, this post is about skylines, not which city is bad and which is good. Chicago and Seattle have two of the best skylines in the country, size and architecture wise. Let's leave it at that, ok.

I have no problems with Seattle or any other city (except Phoenix) and I am not from Chicago. I was just stating how ignorant Houston100s statements were.

This goes to those who want to "bad-yak" a city on this post: If you want to talk about how bad a city is, go start a thread on the cities you hate and get beat up there. It's all about skylines here, folks. |
