Dude, if you want to keep the good name of seattle alive stop posting. Seattle has plenty of slums/ghettos/crime/ your postings are a pack of lies. I have 20+ yrs. living in seattle and all your posts are crap. Check your spelling and get in touch with your fellow citizens and they will be the first to admit the needle is dated, the skyline is ok but not great, but the overall "feel" of city is wonderful. I apologize for all of seattle for the insane posts of Monumental.

I give it to you though rain pebble, (what a sweet name by the way) you are definitely a glutton for punishment.

After being maid to sound foolish on numerous occasions, you keep coming back for more. I had to give you a history lesson on your own city, now you throw out the dumbest thing you've said so far.

Philly is more Vibrant than Seattle, and has more going on........?
Where do you come up with this?

You do realize Philly is the 7th poorest, slum infested city in the entire us right. I'm sure you live in one of the many in the city..............Oh I forgot, since the rundown nineteenth century homes are old they are classic architecture right? Even if they look like hiroshima happened to them.






Philly third biggest downtown next to NY and Chicago.........LOL, you are too funny. I do admire your courage, for trying to convince yourself the impossible might happen when you are actually awake. Maybe if you say it for a long time every day for like 3 more millenniums it might come true.

Sorry to break the news to you. But it is a HELL TO THE NAH. Philly doesn't have the 4th, 5th, .......your not even in the top ten, (nor does anyone care about Phillys sub par skyline) and to make matters worse, Seattle's is bigger than yours, with half your population.

In number of buildings, In number of highrises, you name it. (in north america)



Seattle VS Philly economically is not something you want to even think about talking about.

Seattle is one of the richest cities in the US. THE CITY not the burbs the actual city. (even though our burbs are rich also) The richest man on Planet earth is from Seattle.......some guy name Bill Gates, and a couple other Billionaires. The worst possible area in Seattle, would be heaven for you coming from the slums of Philly


The west coast is so filthy rich, you can never in your life talk money, coming from Philly, are kidding me.

California alone, would be an economy all to itself, and the 5th largest in the world.

You're starting to sound like your feelings are hurt. Are you stuck in Philly.
Just keep making up things in your head, like you been doing to boost Philly, and maybe the days and nights won't hurt so much for you in your rust belt wasteland...lol

I know this thread is going to be closed shortly(way to go slugger) and I'm trying to be careful as possible but it is absolutely mind boggling how ignorant you truly are( cerebrally and mannerism)

Dont be so lazy. Do some research. How can you be this unlearned sitting in front of a computer? It defies logic.

Philadelphia has the 3rd most populous downtown in the usa.Philaldephia has more 100'+ Meter towers than Seattle. Philaldephia has more + 200' meter skyscrapers than Seattle.Philadlephia has more total skyscrapers than Seattle.Emporis.com - International Database about Buildings, Construction and the Real-Estate industry. Philaldephia's downtown housing prices average $600K so you won't be seeing any of those photos you posted in one of Philly inner city hoods. Metro Philadlephia has the 8th largest economy in the world, not the country. Its almost twice as robust as metro Seattle.

Projected 2020 Worlds largest metro economies.
Tokyo - $1602bn GDP
New York - $1561bn
Los Angeles - $886bn
London - $708bn
Chicago - $645bn
Paris - $611bn
Mexico City - $608bn
Philadelphia - $440bn
Osaka/Kobe - $430bn
Washington DC - $426bn

For every 1 block of inner city photos in Philly I can post 10 of higher end Philadlephia that would make Seattle look pretty sickly

You're full of it. You are not from Seattle. Nothing worse than a fake imposter.

I have more than 30 years + in Seattle little one.

Check spelling........hmmmmmmmm. How about you capitalize S in Seattle.

Such a simple mind you are!

Obviously, my education level is higher than everyone who’s posted, and it’s a shame that mindless, misinformed people, get on these forums, and pollute it with garbage. But they say, birds of a feather flock together.

I Feel embarrassed for all of you.

Breathe easy. Do you. I don't like B more, or MD, you do it's all good to me.

You see I'm not mad. I would only feel mad, if I thought things negative were true.

You might be onto something jbear. This clown is probably some grifter from Portland who is trying to make Seattle look bad. The only possible explanation.

Billiam great photos of Minny.
